Duke Albert II of AUSTRIA was born on 12 Dec 1298 in Habsburg. He died on 16 Aug 1358 in Vienna. Albert II of Austria (Habsburg, December 12, 1298 - Vienna, August 16, 1358, known as the Wise or the Lame) was Duke of Austria.

Life
Albert II was born as the son of Emperor Albert I on December 12, 1298. He became the joint ruler of all Habsburg lands with his younger brother, Otto the Merry in 1330, while increasing his possessions by the inheritance of his wife Joan, which was made up of the County of Pfirt and several cities. Furthermore, Albert succeeded in establishing his claims on Carinthia and Carniola against John of Bohemia. Albert's high reputation is shown by the fact that Pope Benedict XII asked him to mediate in the church's conflict with Emperor Louis the Bavarian in 1335. Also, King Philippe VI of France 1337 asked him for his help against Emperor Louis and against King Edward III of England. Nevertheless, Albert remained faithful to the Emperor until Louis' death. He established the "Albertinian House Rule" (Albertinische Hausordnung) to predetermine the rules of succession in the Austrian lands, which, however, was disregarded after his death and only renewed by Emperor Maximilian I. It later became a part of the Pragmatic Sanction, so that it effectively remained one of the basic laws of Austria until 1918. Styria owes him its (former) constitution, the so-called "Mountain Book" (Bergbüchel); the same is true for Carinthia. Under Albert's rule, the construction of the Gothic Choir in the Cathedral of Saint Stephan in Vienna were started, which is why it is also known as Albertinian Choir. There are only suspicions about his temporal paralysis, but usually polyarthritis is mentioned as the cause. However, it did not prevent him from fathering four children: Rudolf, who succeeded him as duke, Frederick, Albert, and Leopold. His land grieved when Albert died on August 16, 1358.

Family and children
He married 15 February 1324 to Countesse Johanna of Pfirt, daughter of Count Ulrich III of Pfirt and had the following children:

Rudolf IV of Austria November 1, 1339,Vienna-July 27, 1365, Milan).

Albert III of Austria (September 9, 1349,Vienna-August 29, 1395, Castle Laxenburg), known as Albert with the Pigtail (German: Albrecht III "mit dem Copfe"), was a duke of Austria and a member of the House of Habsburg.

Life
Albert III was born as the third son of Duke Albert II of Austria. Even though his father had determined that the eldest son should the sole successor after his death in 1358, Albert later inherited the rule from his two older brothers Rudolf IV and Frederick III and later shared it with his younger brother Leopold III.

In 1377, Albert went on a crusade against the pagan Lithuanians and Samogitians.

After Rudolf's and Frederick's death without an heir, Albert and his remaining brother, Leopold III, entered, in 1379, into the Treaty of Neuberg to divide the Habsburg territories. Albert received Austria proper while Leopold ruled over Styria, Carinthia, Tyrol and Further Austria.

His government was beneficial to the realm, as he supported the arts and sciences. Albert was an apt scholar himself, particularly as a mathematician. He expanded the University of Vienna and attempted to refurbish Vienna.

He is buried in the Ducal Crypt in the Stephansdom in Vienna.

Born as a son of Duke Albert III of Austria, he was the Duke of Austria from 1395 until 1404, which then included roughly today's Lower Austria and most of Upper Austria, as the other Habsburg dominions were at that time ruled by his relatives of the Leopoldinian Line of the family.

He increased the territory by amalgamating the Bohemian March and the Hungarian March into Austria. In his time, the colonization of the Waldviertel began by his ministerials, the Kuenringer knights. In the Investiture Controversy, he sided with Emperor Henry IV and in a battle against the Saxons.

Parents: Margrave Adalbert of AUSTRIA.

Children were: Margrave Leopold II of AUSTRIA.

Duke Ernest of AUSTRIA was born in 1377 in Bruck an der Mur. He died on 10 Jun 1424 in Bruck an der Mur. He was buried in Cistercian monastery of Rein. Ernest the Iron, officially Ernest,Duke of Inner Austria (German: Ernst der Eiserne) (born 1377 in Bruck an der Mur; died June 10, 1424 in the same place) was from the Habsburg dynasty, and as a member of the Leopoldine Line, whose head of the family he was 1411-24, was the ruler of Styria, Carinthia and Carniola, i.e the Inner Austria.

After the death of his father Leopold III, duke of Inner Austria, whose third son he was, in the Battle of Sempach in 1386, he stood under the guardianship of Albert III, and in 1401 accompanied the German King Ruprecht on his campaign in Italy. Upon the death of their eldest brother William, Duke of Inner Austria in 1406, the remaining three brothers agreed about the future partition of their patrimony. In the separation agreement of 1406, Ernest received Styria, Carinthia and Carniola, and jointly with his elder brother duke Leopold IV (the head of the Leopoldinian line), held the guardianship over young Albert V, duke of Lower Austria. This resulted in a civil war between Leopold IV, Duke of Further Austria and Ernest in 1407, which lasted until May 1409 - and Leopold died sonless in 14121 whereupon Ernest became the uncontested head of the Leopoldinian family. In 1414, he became the last Duke to be enthroned according to the traditional rite in Carinthia, and from that time on called himself Archduke. He was the first Habsburg to actually use this title, which had been invented by Rudolf IV.

He continuously lived in strife with Emperor Sigismund from 1412 onwards. When his brother Frederick IV, Duke of Further of Austria (ruler of Tirol) was banned by the Emperor in 1417, Ernest first attempted to gain control over Frederick's territories himself, but then came to an agreement with him and successfully defended Tirol against the Emperor's pretensions.

Ernest's grave is in the Cistercian monastery of Rein. His nickname the Iron only came into use after his death.

Family and children
His first spouse was Margaret, Princess of Pomerania, and the second was Cymburgis of Masovia, who was his equal in vitality and with whom he had nine children:

Duke of Bavaria, Henry II of AUSTRIA was born in 1107 in unknown. He died on 13 Jan 1177 in unknown. Heinrich (Henry) II, (1107 - January 13, 1177), Count Palatine of the Rhine 1140-1141, Margrave of Austria from 1141 to 1156, as Heinrich (Henry) XI also Duke of Bavaria from 1141 to 1156, Duke of Austria 1156-1177, was a prince from the dynasty of Babenberg.

Monument on the outside of the Schottenstift in ViennaAs the son of Markgrave Leopold III, he first became Count Palatine of the Rhine until being appointed Duke of Bavaria and Margrave of Austria after the unexpected death of his brother Leopold IV. In the course of the dispute between the Welfen and Staufen dynasties in the Holy Roman Empire, the duchy of Bavaria had been taken away from the Welf Henry the Proud by the emperor and given to the Babenberg dynasty. The new Emperor Friedrich I tried to reach a compromise with the Welfen and endowed the son of Henry the Proud, Henry the Lion, with Bavaria in 1156. A replacement had to be found for the Babenberg family, namely the Privilegium Minus, by which Austria gained complete independence from Bavaria as a duchy.

Other than his father, who resided in Klosterneuburg for most of the time, Henry moved his residence to Vienna in 1145. Only by this act, the modern Austrian capital could surpass cities such as Krems, Melk or Klosterneuburg. Since then, it has remained the capital of the country. Also in 1147, the Cathedral of Saint Stephan was completed, which became a visible landmark of the city, showing its prominence. In 1155, Henry founded the Schottenstift monastery in Vienna, in the courtyard of which there is a statue of him to this day.

Until 1143, he was married to Gertrud of Supplinburg, a niece of Emperor Lothar II, from 1148 to Theodora Comnena, a niece of the Byzantine Emperor Manuel I. Both marriages strongly show the importance of the House of Babenberg in Central Europe in that time.

Henry's brother was the important chronicler Otto of Freising. His sister Judith was the wife of William V of Montferrat.

Henry's surname Jasomirgott is first documented during the 13th century in the form of Jochsamergott, the meaning of which is unclear. According to one theory, it is derived from an Arab word bearing a connection to the Second Crusade, in which he participated in 1146. According to a popular etymology, it is derived from the formula Ja so mir Gott helfe (="if however God would help me").

In the Investiture Dispute, he first sided with Emperor Henry IV, but in 1081 at the Diet of Tulln switched sides under the influence of his wife Itha and Bishop Altmann of Passau. Subsequently, he was deposed by the Emperor, who gave the fief to Vratislav II of Bohemia, who defeated Leopold in the Battle of Mailberg. Ultimately, Leopold managed to retain his position, but he lost some territory in Southern Moravia. Leopold resided in Gars am Kamp.

Parents: Margrave Ernest of AUSTRIA.

Margrave Leopold III of AUSTRIA was born in 1073 in unknown. He died on 15 Nov 1136 in unknown. He was buried in Klosterneuburg monastery. Leopold III (1073 - November 15, 1136), Margrave of Austria 1095-1136, also known as Saint Leopold (his feast day being November 15), patron saint of Austria in general and of Vienna, Lower Austria and jointly with Saint Florian of Upper Austria in particular.

Leopold was the son of Margrave Leopold II and Ida of Formbach-Ratelnberg; his sons were Leopold IV and Henry II Jasomirgott. His second wife was Agnes, the sister of Emperor Henry V, since he had supported the latter against his father Henry IV. This connection to the Salians raised the importance of the House of Babenberg, to which important royal rights on the territory of its margraviate were granted. Leopold called himself "Princeps Terrae", which rose from a consciousness of independent territorial rule. He was considered as a candidate for the election of the King of Germany in 1125, but declined this opportunity.

He is mainly remembered for the development of the country, which is associated with him founding monasteries. His most important foundation is Klosterneuburg (1108). According to legend, the Lady Mary appeared to him and led him to a position where he found the veil of his wife Agnes, lost years before. At that place, the monastery of Klosterneuburg was founded. He subsequently expanded this city to become his residence.

Other foundations were Heiligenkreuz, Kleinmariazell and Seitenstetten. All of those induced the church to canonize him in 1485. In fact, the monasteries served the purpose of developing a territory still largely covered by forest at that time.

Leopold also fostered the development of cities, namely besides Klosterneuburg and Vienna also Krems, which was endowed with a mint, which, however, never attained great importance.

The first literary texts from the area of Austria date back to Leopold's time, which are the writings of Henry of Melk and Ava of Göttweig.

He is buried in the Klosterneuburg monastery, which owes him its existence. In 1663, under the rule of his namesake Emperor Leopold I, he was declared patron saint of Austria instead of Saint Koloman. There is no school on November 15 in Vienna, Lower Austria and Upper Austria.

Parents: Margrave Leopold II of AUSTRIA and Ida of FORMBACH-RATELNBERG.

Spouse: Agnes of GERMANY. Margrave Leopold III of AUSTRIA and Agnes of GERMANY were married in 1105 in unknown. Children were: Duke of Bavaria, Henry II of AUSTRIA, Leopold IV, Judith, Agnes of BABENBERG.

Duke Leopold III of AUSTRIA was born on 1 Nov 1351 in Vienna. He died on 9 Jul 1386 in Battle of Sempach. Duke Leopold III of Austria, Duke of Inner Austria (November 1, 1351, Vienna - July 9, 1386, Sempach) from the Habsburg family was a Duke of Austria, Styria and Carinthia. He was a younger son of Duke Albert II, and younger brother of the Dukes Rudolf IV the Founder and Albert III. He first was the administrator of Tirol, and was jointly charged with the rule of the Habsburg lands with Albert after Rudolf's death. However, in the Treaty of Neuberg of September 9, 1379, he became the exclusive ruler of Styria (including Wiener Neustadt), Carinthia, Carniola, the Windish March, Gorizia, the Habsburgs' possessions in Friuli, Tirol and Further Austria. In 1368, he acquired Freiburg im Breisgau, in 1375 Feldkirch and in 1382 Trieste. However, his attempts to expand his position in Switzerland and Swabia failed, when he died in the Battle of Sempach.

He was succeeded by eldest his son William. Other sons included Leopold, future Duke of Further Austria, Ernest the Iron, future Duke of Inner Austria, and Frederick, future Duke of Further Austria.

Parents: Duke Albert II of AUSTRIA and Johanna of PFIRT.

Children were: Duke Ernest of AUSTRIA, Duke William of AUSTRIA, Duke Leopold IV of AUSTRIA, Duke Frederick IV of AUSTRIA.

Duke Leopold IV of AUSTRIA. Parents: Duke Leopold III of AUSTRIA.

Leopold of AUSTRIA was born in 1207 in unknown. He died in 1216 in unknown. Parents: Duke Leopold VI of AUSTRIA and Styria and Theodora Angelina.

Duke Leopold V of AUSTRIA and Styria was born in 1157 in unknown. He died on 31 Dec 1194 in Graz. Leopold V (1157 - December 31, 1194), the Virtuous, was a Babenberg duke of Austria from 1177 to 1194 and Styria from 1192 to 1194.

Leopold was the son of Henry II Jasomirgott and his Byzantine wife Theodora Comnena. In 1172 he married Helena, daughter of King Geza II of Hungary, and their sons were Frederick I and Leopold VI.

He is mainly remembered for his participation in the Third Crusade, where he quarreled with the English king Richard Lionheart outside Acre; Richard and Philip II of France had raised their flags in Acre, but Richard removed Leopold's flag when he attempted to do the same (see Siege of Acre). He was also suspected of involvement in the murder of Leopold's cousin Conrad of Montferrat, shortly after his election as King of Jerusalem. On his journey back to England in 1192, Richard had to stop in Vienna, where he was recognized (supposedly because of his signet ring) and was arrested in the Erdberg district (modern Landstraße). For some time the king was imprisoned in Dürnstein, and was then brought before Emperor Henry VI. The immense ransom, supposedly six thousand buckets of silver, became the foundation for the mint in Vienna, and was used to build new city walls for Vienna, as well as to build Wiener Neustadt. However, the duke was excommunicated by Pope Celestine III for having taken a fellow crusader prisoner.

On August 17, 1186 the Georgenberg Pact was negotiated, by which Styria and the central part of Upper Austria were amalgamated into Austria after 1192. This was the first step towards the creation of modern Austria.

In 1194 he died in Graz after a fall from a horse at a tournament, without having been absolved of the excommunication.

Parents: Duke of Bavaria, Henry II of AUSTRIA and Theodora COMNENA.

Spouse: Ilona of HUNGARY. Duke Leopold V of AUSTRIA and Styria and Ilona of HUNGARY were married in 1172 in unknown. Children were: Duke Leopold VI of AUSTRIA and Styria, Frederick I.

Duke Leopold VI of AUSTRIA and Styria was born in 1176 in unknown. He died on 28 Jul 1230 in San Germano, Italy. Leopold VI, the Glorious (1176 - July 28, 1230 in San Germano), from the House of Babenberg, was Duke of Austria from 1198 to 1230 and of Styria from 1194 to 1230.

Leopold was the younger son of Duke Leopold V. In contravention of the provbisions of the Georgenberg Pact, the Babenberg reign was divided after the death of Leopold V: Leopold's elder brother Frederick I was given Austria (corresponding roughly to modern Lower Austria and eastern Upper Austria), while Leopold himself became Duke of Styria. Both duchies were reunified when Frederick died after only four years of rule.

Leopold VI participated in two crusades (the Albigensian Crusade in 1212 and the failed Fifth Crusade from 1217 to 1221) and, as his predecessors, attempted to develop the land by founding monastaries. His most important foundation is Lilienfeld in the Lower Austrian valley of the Traisen river, where he was buried after his death. Besides that, he supported the then highly modern Mendicant Orders of the Franciscans and Dominicans. He elevated Enns to the status of a city in 1212, and Vienna in 1221, the territory of which was nearly doubled.

Unter Leopold's rule, the Gothic style began to reach Austria - the Capella Speciosa in his temporary residence of Klosterneuburg is known as the first building influenced by it in the Danube area - a reconstruction of it can be seen today in the palace gardens of Laxenburg.

Babenbergian Austria reached the zenith of its prestige under Leopold's rule. Evidence to this is given by his marriage to the Byzantine princess Theodora Angelina and his attempt to mediate between Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and Pope Gregory IX, which he was working on when he died in 1230 in Italy.

Leopold's court is known as a center of the Minnesang, e.g. Walther von der Vogelweide, Neidhart von Reuental and Ulrich von Liechtenstein were active here. Also, the Nibelungenlied may have been written in his court.

Children
Leopold and Theodora Angelina had seven children:
