Magdalena de Guzmán

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Magdalena de Guzmán (died 1621), was a Spanish courtier.[1]

She was the chief lady-in-waiting of three queens of Spains in succession: Elisabeth of Valois, Margaret of Austria, Queen of Spain and Elisabeth of France (1602–1644). She served as royal governess to Anne of Austria. Her offices made her an influential figure at court, particularly during the tenure of Margaret of Austria, during which she participated in the queen's court fraction against Francisco Gómez de Sandoval, 1st Duke of Lerma.
