Ermengarda de Vallespir (died 1001) was countess consort of Pallars by marriage to 
Oliba Cabreta and regent of the County of Cerdanya in 990-994 in co-regency with her 
sons Bernard I, Count of Besalú, Wifred II, Count of Cerdanya and Abbot Oliba.

Life[edit]

She was born to Miró II of Cerdanya. She married count Oliba Cabreta in 966. With her 
spouse, she made many donations to convents. In 988, Oliba retired to a convent, and 
in 990, he died. Oliba divided his domain among his three sons, and Ermengard acted 
as their regent in accordance with the terms of her marriage contract. In 991, she 
became involved in a conflict with the bishop Sal la d’Urgell.

In 993, her three sons attained full authority of their domains, and by 994, Ermengarda 
had retired to Vallespir. She governed Vallespir with full authority as her own fief. She 
is known to be dead in 14 February 1001.
