Galindo Aznárez I (died 867) was Count of Aragón from 844 to 867.

Biography[edit]

Galindo was the son of Aznar Galíndez I (and his wife, a woman of unknown name), 
who had been Count of Aragón from 809 to 820, when a practical joke played by 
Galindo on his brother-in-law García Galíndez led the latter to enlist the support of the 
Pamplona in usurping the county.

Aznar was compensated by French king Louis the Pious with the counties of Urgell, 
Cerdanya, and Conflent. Galindo received these counties from his father sometime 
before 833, in which year he usurped the counties of Pallars and Ribagorza. For this 
action he was dispossessed of Urgell and Cerdagne by Louis in 834, and was 
subsequently ejected from Pallars and Ribagorza by the Counts of Toulouse. Upon the 
heirless death in 844 of count Galindo Garcés, son of his father's rival, Galindo was 
allowed to assume the countship of Aragón in exchange for recognition of the 
suzerainty of Pamplona over the formerly-French county.

Personal life[edit]

Galindo Aznárez and unknown woman had a son, Aznar Galíndez II, his successor. An 
867 charter mentions a son-in-law, king Sancho, suggesting that a daughter of 
Galindo married to Sancho Garcés, younger son of García Íńiguez of Pamplona, and 
by him became mother of his son, Aznar Sánchez of Larraun.[1]

Count Galindo donated money to the Abbey of San Pedro de Siresa.[2][3]
