Hugh IV of Burgundy (9 March 1213 – 27 or 30 October 1272) was Duke of Burgundy between 1218 and 1272. Hugh was the son of Odo III, Duke of Burgundy[1] and Alice de Vergy.
Hugh married twice, first to Yolande de Dreux when he was 16 and she 17 years of age.[2] He then married Beatrice of Navarre, when he was 45.[3] Between his two marriages he had 10 children, the following are their issues:
Hugh IV, through a transaction with John l'Antique de Chalon, gave up the barony of Salon for the counties of Chalon and Auxonne in 1237, which expanded the Duchy[6] and the regional economy benefited from the growing wine trade.
In 1239, Hugh joined the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and King Theobald I of Navarre.[7] The Burgundian troops allied with Richard of Cornwall and rebuilt Ascalon and negotiated a peace with Egypt in 1241.[8] Hugh was made titular king of Thessalonica in 1266,[9] although it had been recaptured by the Byzantines some years before.
Hugh IV died on 27 Oct 1272 (Aged 60) at Villaines-en-Duismois, France. His burial place is unknown.
