Adelaide (Aelis) of Tours ( 820 – c. 866) was a daughter of Count Hugh of Tours and his wife Ava, who was a sister of Matfrid, Count of Orléans.

She married Conrad I, Count of Auxerre, with whom she had at least two children, Hugh and Conrad the Younger. Additionally legend of the later Swabian branch of the House of Welf assigns to Conrad and Adelaide an additional son, Welf I, a relationship considered probable.

After her husband's death around 864, she married Robert the Strong, and had two children, Odo and Robert I of France.

Robert's grandson was Hugh Capet, the first King of the House of Capet.

    'Some secondary works assert that the second husband of Adelais was Robert "le Fort" [Capet]. If this is correct, Adelais must have been Comte Robert's second wife as his known children were already born by the time Adelais's husband Conrad died. Settipani states that the only basis for the assertion is a 12th century interpolation in the Chronicle of Saint-Bénigne de Dijon, which is of little historical value. Nevertheless, he suggests that it is likely that the wife of Comte Robert was a close relation of Adelais, although the basis for this is not known.'

    Adélaïde ou Aélis († après 866), épouse en premières noces Conrad Ier de Bourgogne, frère de l'impératrice Judith de Bavière, épouse de Louis le Pieux, elle a un fils du nom de Hugues qui est pour un temps archevêque de Cologne. Une interpolation de la chronique de Saint-Bénigne de Dijon, laisse penser qu'Adélaïde, veuve de Conrad Ier de Bourgogne, aurait épousé en secondes noces le comte Robert le Fort, l'arrière-grand-père de Hugues Capet et donc l'ancêtre de toute la lignée capétienne. Il a aussi été avancé que l'épouse de Robert le Fort ait été, non pas d'Adélaïde mais une fille de cette dernière et de Conrad Ier de Bourgogne, fille qui pourrait se prénommer Emma.
