Albert III (January 27, 1443 - September 12, 1500), duke of Saxony (Germany), surnamed Animosus or The Courageous, was the younger son of Frederick II the Mild[?], elector and duke of Saxony.
After the death of the elector Frederick in 1464, Albert and Ernest ruled their lands together, but in 1485 a division was made by the treaty of Leipzig[?], and Albert received Meissen, together with some adjoining districts, and founded the Albertine branch of the family of Wettin.
Regarded as a capable soldier by the emperor, Albert, in 1475, took a prominent part in the campaign against Charles the Bold, duke of Burgundy, and in 1487 led an expedition against Matthias Corvinus[?], king of Hungary, which failed owing to lack of support on the part of the emperor.
