The Third Folkung Uprising (Swedish: Tredje Folkungaupproret; 1278-1280) was the last uprising known for the political power of the Folkungs.[1] The insurgents, who were led by the known Folkung, Johan Filipsson started the revolt in hopes to end the current leadership in Sweden. The Swedish king was for the time Magnus Ladulås.[2]
At first the uprising was succesful, queen Hedvig was forced to seek refuge in a monastery, and the queen’s father were taken prisoner and brought to a Folkung castle. Also a knight who had a good relation to the Swedish king had been killed at the castle in Jönköping. Besides, it is also said that troups of the Folkungs attacked Norway during the period, so that the Norwegians had to summon their fleet.[3][4]
The rebellion is said to have ended when the king managed to lure the insurgents to the castle in Jönköping where they were captured, and later also executed in 1280.[5] Also according to Erik's Chronicle, the rebellion began because King Magnus had shown affection for foreign men, and especially for his appreciation of Ingemar, who is said to have married his relative.[3][5][6]
