Flávio Hermenegildo (c. 768 - c. 831), also known as Flávio Hermenegildo Teudis, was the 6th Count of Coimbra.
The County of Coimbra, during his time, encompassed lands that are part of modern-day Portugal, including Coimbra, Viseu, Lamego, and Santa Maria da Feira. This region was a significant frontier zone during the Reconquista, with its control frequently contested between Christian and Muslim forces. Flávio's tenure was characterized by the challenges of maintaining control over Coimbra amid the broader conflicts between Christian and Muslim forces.
