Magnus I of Sweden (1240-1290), by name Magnus Barnlock (Swedish: Magnus Ladulås) was king of Sweden from 1275 until his death in 1290. Historians debate whether his epithet is because of his decree of 1279 illegalizing coshery (thereby "putting a lock" on barns) or because his second name might have been Ladislaus.
