The Teutonic Knights’ Grand Master, Albert of …
Years: 1522 - 1522
The Teutonic Knights’ Grand Master, Albert of Brandenburg, whose refusal to acknowledge the submission of to Poland had sparked a devastating war in eastern Prussia, had been granted a four-year truce early in 1521.
The dispute had been referred to Emperor Charles V and other princes, but as no settlement had been reached, Albert has continued his efforts to obtain help in view of a renewal of the war.
For this purpose he visits the Diet of Nuremberg in 1522, where he makes the acquaintance of the Reformer Andreas Osiander, by whose influence Albert is won over to Protestantism.
