  • Albert II the Wise (1298 - 1358) was the Duke of Austria and Styria (1330 - 1358), the Duke of Carinthia (1335 - 1358) and the Margrave of Carniola (1335 - 1358). Albert the Wise was born on 12 December 1298 to the Habsburg Emperor Albert I and Elizabeth of Gorizia-Tyrol. After the death of his brother Frederick, Albert and his brother Otto co-ruled the Habsburg lands. Albert succeeded in gaining the inheritance of Carinthia and Carniola against John of Bohemia, which Otto then ruled. Albert gained a reputation for his wisdom, and was thus asked by Pope Benedict XII to mediate the dispute between the Church and the Emperor Louis IV of Upper Bavaria in 1335. In 1337 King Philip IV of France also asked for his help in his disputes with the Emperor and King Edward III of England. Despite the mediations, Albert remained faithful to the Emperor until his death. Albert established the "Albertinian House Rule" which became the law of succession in the Habsburg domains, although it was only enacted by his descendant Maximilian I. Albert also wrote the constitutions of Styria and Carinthia, the so-called "Mountain Book". Albert also constructed the Gothic choir in the Cathedral of St. Stephan in Vienna, which is still known as the Albertinian Choir. Albert fathered six children with Joan of Pfirt, the daughter of Count Ulrich III.
