Brunhild and her sister-in-law Fredegund were queens who ruled over an area that encompassed modern-day France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, western and southern Germany, and swaths of Switzerland for over 50 years during the Dark Ages.

This is our monthly (formerly dinner) discussion group. We have moved it back online for the winter as attendance at the restaurant has been low since we moved indoors.
