This is the final part of our three part biography on Birger Jarl, the man who changed Swedish royal power and politics forever. This time we finish the story of his life and look briefly into his legacy. We hope you've enjoyed this discussion about one of Sweden's most famous historical figures.

We're back next time with our next ruler, King Birger - appropriately named!
