Short Description: "Albert III, Margrave of Brandenburg-Salzwedel (c. 1250 – between 19 November and 4 December 1300) was a Margrave of Brandenburg. He was a member of the Brandenburg-Salzwedel branch of the House of Ascania, which existed from 1266 to 1317. He was a son of Otto III and his wife, Beatrice (or Božena) of Bohemia.

As a son of Otto, he was entitled to use the title of Margrave and he did sign some official documents, be he was never more than a co-ruler. The real power was wielded by his cousin Otto IV "with the arrow". Albert III administered the Lordship of Stargard, which Brandenburg had acquired from Pomerania in 1236. Albert III was from 1284 the sole ruler of Stargard and Lychen. After his sons Otto and John died (around 1299), Albert III sold Stargard to his son-in-law Henry II of Mecklenburg. The 1304 Treaty of Vietmannsdorf confirmed Henry II as Lord a Stargard and enshrined that it was held as a fief from Brandenburg." - (en.wikipedia.org 17.11.2019)
