Emperor Ninkô was an [[emperor]] of the late [[Edo period]].
He took the throne in [[1817]] following the abdication of his father, [[Emperor Kokaku|Emperor Kôkaku]].
Ninkô abdicated the throne in [[1846]], and was succeeded by one of his sons by the imperial consort [[Ogimachi Naoko|Ôgimachi Naoko]], who then became [[Emperor Komei|Emperor Kômei]]. Ninkô died later that same year.
One of Ninkô's daughters, [[Kazu-no-Miya]], married [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Iemochi]] in [[1862]] in the most prominent act of the attempted ''[[kobu gattai|kôbu gattai]]'' policy (an attempt to save the shogunate by strengthening its ties with the Imperial family).
