    Notes about William von MEISSEN I

    William I, the one-eyed, (19 December 1343, Dresden - 9 February 1407, Schloss Grimma) was Margrave of Meissen. His surname is related to the legend that Saint Benno appeared to him because of his disputes with the Church in a dream and he had an eye gouged out.

    William was the son of Frederick II, Margrave of Meissen and Mathilde of Bavaria.

    William's first wife was Elizabeth of Moravia (d. 1400), after whose death he married his second wife Anna of Brunswick. Both marriages were childless, so his inheritance fell to his nephews Frederick the Peaceful, Frederick the Belligerent and William the Rich.
