Immanuelle of Saxony ("Immanuelle the Pure") (1265 - 1306) was the wife of King Sven III of Arendaal and thus the Queen Consort of Arendaal between 1280 and 1306. A daughter of Holy Germanic Emperor Maximilian III, she married the Aren King in the city of Leuven at the age of fifteen.
As Queen, she often acted as her husband's co-regent in the Aren capital when he was in other parts of the country, and was especially adept at exploiting divisions within the nobility to the benefit of the monarchy. Immanuelle's political skill, boldness and perseverance of succeeded in turning potentially troublesome nobles against each other.
The Queen is best remember ed for the Book of Hours produced for her. One of the most exquisite examples of early 14th century illumination, it was executed in a complex series of stages, starting with the text as early as 1300, its decoration inspired by diverse sources and artists. 
She died three years before her husband at the age of 41. His eulogy at her funeral was recorded thus by the chronicler Bertrade de Mantes: "The dearest Queen, ever beautiful, always charming to men, pleasing to God, and like an angel."
