Radbod (or Redbad) (died 719) was the king (or duke) of Frisia from c. 680 until his death. He is often considered the last independent ruler of Frisia before Frankish domination. He defeated Charles Martel at Cologne. Eventually however Charles prevailed and compelled the Frisians to submit. Radbod died in 719 but for some years his successors struggled against the Frankish power.
