As Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, Statue by Rudolf Siemering ( 1835 Königsberg-1905 Berlin )

Duke Frederick of Saxony, Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, died in December 1510.

Albert was chosen as his successor early in 1511 in the hope that his relationship to his maternal uncle, Sigismund I the Old, Grand Duke of Lithuania and King of Poland, would facilitate a settlement of the disputes over eastern Prussia, which had been held by the Order under Polish suzerainty since the Second Peace of Thorn ( 1466 ).

The Grand Master then journeyed to Wittenberg, where he was advised by Martin Luther to abandon the rules of his Order, to marry, and to convert Prussia into a hereditary duchy for himself.

Summoned before the imperial court of justice, Albert refused to appear and was proscribed, while the Order elected a new Grand Master, Walter von Cronberg, who received Prussia as a fief at the imperial Diet of Augsburg.

He was made a " Knight of the Indian Empire " by Queen Victoria, a Knight Commander of the Order of the Indian Empire by Edward VII ( 1902 ), and a Knight Grand Commander of the Order of the Star of India by George V ( 1912 ).
