About Niels, King of Denmark

Niels var dansk konge i perioden 1104-1134. Han var sønn av Svend Estridsøn og gift med Magnus Berføtts enke Margrete Freskulla. Niels skildres som en fredelig hersker. Senest i hans tid ble tienden innført i Danmark. Niels satte sin brorsønn Knud Lavard som hertug i sønderjylland for å vokte landet mot venderne. Knud ble myrdet av Niels' sønn Magnus, og Niels ble drept av borgerne i Slesvig i den feiden som fulgte.
