Christina Rogberg

Christina Gustava Lovisa Rogberg (26 October 1832 in Stockholm - 22 December 1907 in Stockholm) was a Swedish author and courtier.

Christina Rogberg

She was the daughter of Olof Erland Rogberg (1787–1863), chaplain of the royal Swedish court. She was appointed kammarfru (ladies' maid) to queen Désirée Clary in 1857, and to the same position in the household of queen Louise in 1862. She became a favorite and confidant of the queen. In 1869, she was promoted to the post of lectrice or reader to the queen, who made and published her own translations.

She is foremost known as the author of a book about her life at court, Strödda anteckningar ur drottning Lovisas lif ('Scattered Notes from the life of Queen Louise'), which was published in 1873.
