The House of Burgundy (/ˈbɜːrɡəndi/) was a cadet branch of the Capetian dynasty, descending from Robert I, Duke of Burgundy, a younger son of King Robert II of France. The House ruled the Duchy of Burgundy from 1032 to 1361 and achieved the recognized title of King of Portugal.

The last member of the House was Philip of Rouvres, who succeeded his grandfather in 1349. Philip died childless in 1361 and the duchy reverted to his liege, who two years later created his son the new duke of Burgundy, thus beginning the Younger House of Burgundy.^[1]

Notable members of the main line of the House of Burgundy include:

Robert I, Duke of Burgundy
Henry, Count of Portugal, father of the first Portuguese King Afonso Henriques
Hugh III, Duke of Burgundy
Odo IV, Duke of Burgundy
Margaret of Burgundy, the first wife and Queen of Louis X of France
Joan the Lame, the first wife and Queen of Philip VI of France
Philip I, Duke of Burgundy

The Portuguese Branch

The Portuguese House of Burgundy was the Portuguese cadet house of the House of Burgundy, founded by Henry, Count of Portugal in 1093. The senior legitimate line went extinct with the death of King Ferdinand I of Portugal in 1383, but two illegitimate lines, the Houses of Aviz and Braganza, continued to rule in Portugal, with interruptions, until 1910 and later Brazil until 1889.
