Ernest, Margrave of Austria

Ernest the Brave (1027 – 10 June 1075) was the Babenberg margrave of Austria from 1055 to his death, following his father Adalbert.

He increased the territory of Austria by amalgamating the Bohemian and Hungarian marches into Austria.[citation needed] In his time, the colonisation of the Waldviertel was begun by his ministeriales, the Künringer knights. In the Investiture Controversy, he sided with the Emperor Henry IV and battled against the Saxons, dying at the First Battle of Langensalza. He married Adelaide Von Eilenburg (1040 - 26 Jan 1071).
