For other nobles of the same name please see SigismundSigismund (died 524) was king of the Burgundians from 516 to his death. He was the son of king Gundobad whom he succeeded in 516. Sigismund and his brother Godomar were defeated in battle by Clovis’ sons and Godomar fled. Sigismund was taken by Chlodomer King of Orléans where he was kept as a prisoner. He was drowned in the village of St Pervay la Colombe near Orléans. Godomar then rallied the Burgundian army and won back his kingdom.
