Jacob Nielsen (died about 1309), a great grandson of Valdemar II of Denmark, was count of Northern Halland. His father and grandfather (Niels Valdemarsen) had both held Halland as a county before him. Jacob received Halland in 1283, but switched allegiance to the King of Norway two years later and was declared an outlaw in 1287 after the murder of Eric V of Denmark. In Halland, he built the fortresses of and later Varberg Fortress. Jacob's position weakened after the Norwegian king started to lose interest in the conflict with Denmark, and in 1305, he had to give up Halland to Haakon V of Norway. Haakon granted it to his own son-in-law, the Swedish duke Erik Magnusson.

  • Jacob Nielsen, sannolikt född omkring 1250 och död omkring 1310, var greve av Norra Halland och son till greven Niels Nielsen (barnbarn på sidolinjen till Valdemar Sejr) och Cæcilie Jensdatter av Hvideätten (död 1260). Han låg bakom byggandet av Varbergs fästning. Jacob fick 1283 faderns forna grevskap som län men slöt sig till Erik Klippings fiender och dömdes 1287 fredlös för påstådd inblandning i mordet på denne i Finderup. Liksom övriga fredlösa fick han norskt stöd mot Erik Menved och behöll makten i Halland norr om Ätran under två årtionden. I striden mellan Magnus Ladulås söner tog Jacob parti för hertigarna Erik och Valdemar mot kung Birger, Erik Menveds allierade. År 1305 överlät han länet åt kung Håkon Magnusson av Norge, som gav det vidare till hertig Erik. Jacob sökte sedan förgäves återfå det. (sv)
