right|Seal Jarler (Latin Jarlerius) (died August 22, 1255) was a Swedish Dominican friar and Archbishop of Uppsala from 1236 to 1255.
==Biography== Jarler was one of the two earliest known Swedish students at the University of Paris. During his time as archbishop, the Dominican and Franciscan friars settled in Sweden. These orders benefited the Christian awareness among the common populations through their preaching. Cistercians, the previously order in Sweden, did not preach.
