Absalon,
bishop and
founder of Copenhagen:
1st uncle 20 times removed
When
he first took control of Copenhagen, or 'Havn' as it was then known,
in 1167 (the power having been granted by King Valdemar himself),
the warrior Bishop Absalon found a small settlement of wattle and
daub fishing huts, and little else. |
