Ingeborg was born a daughter of King Magnus III of Sweden and Helwig of Holstein.
The dispensation necessary for the marriage was not obtained until 1297 because of the conflict between her spouse and the archbishop Jens Grand. Queen Ingeborg was described as beautiful and tender. She is not believed to have played any political role.
In 1318, Queen Ingeborg gave birth to a son who lived: she showed him off to the public from her carriage, from which he fell from her grip, broke his neck and died.
After this, she entered the convent of Saint Clare in Roskilde of the sorrow.
