Daughter of Bernard II, Duke of Saxony and Eilika of Schweinfurt. She married Floris I, Count of Holland (c. 1017-June 28, 1061). Upon his death, her son Dirk V became Count of Holland. Since he was still young, she became regent.
In 1063 Gertrude married Robert of Flanders (Robert the Frisian), the second son of Baldwin V of Flanders. She and her husband then acted as co-regents for the young count until he became of age to rule in his own.
