Karl Magnusson (died 1220) was the Bishop of Linköping during 1216–1220.

Karl Magnusson was from the Bjälbo dynasty or House of Folkung (''Folkungaätten'') and was a brother of Birger Magnusson (''Birger Jarl)'', the most powerful man of Sweden in the mid-13th century. His father was Magnus Minnessköld (1180s-1208), and his mother was likely Ingrid Ylva (1180s-1250-1255). He died at the Battle of Lihula in Estonia. Provided by Wikipedia
