  Béla I (1016 - Moson, 10 september 1063) was koning van Hongarije van 1061 tot 1063 en behoorde tot het huis van Árpád.
  
  Béla was een zoon van hertog Vazul van Hongarije en van Katun van Bulgarije. Na de mislukte opstand van zijn vader werd hij samen met zijn broers verbannen. Hij woonde eerst in Bohemen en daarna in Polen. Béla vocht in het leger van koning Mieszko II Lambert van Polen en zou een opstand van de Pommeren hebben bedwongen door de aanvoerder van de opstandelingen in een tweegevecht te verslaan. Hij werd in Polen gedoopt met de naam Adalbert en trouwde met een Poolse prinses. Béla steunde zijn zwager Casimir I van Polen om de macht van het Poolse koningsuis te vestigen.
  
  In 1050 werd zijn oudere broer Andreas koning van Hongarije. Béla werd benoemd tot hertog tussen de Morava (Tsjechië) en de Hron. In die functie was hij veldheer tegen Kroatië en Bulgarije. Béla leek de aangewezen troonopvolger maar toen Andreas zijn 5-jarige zoon Salomon tot medekoning kroonde, vluchtte Béla naar Polen. Met een Pools leger wist hij in twee veldslagen Andreas te verslaan, die in 1060 in gevangenschap aan zijn verwondingen bezweek. Diens vrouw wist echter met Salomon en de schatkist naar Duitsland te vluchten. Béla werd koning van Hongarije maar de Duitse regentes Agnes steunde Salomon als tegenkoning.
  
  Toen de landdag in 1061 het herstel van het heidendom eiste, liet hij de landdag door troepen uiteen jagen. Béla hervormde het muntwezen en de economie. In 1063 trok een Duits leger onder Otto I van Northeim naar Hongarije om Salomon op de troon te zetten. Het kwam niet tot een veldslag want Béla raakte zwaargewond toen de baldakijn van zijn troon in zijn paleis in Dömös instortte, en overleed kort daarna. Béla werd begraven in de abdij van Szekszárd die hij in 1061 had gesticht.

  Béla I the Champion or the Bison (/'b?l?/; Hungarian: I. (Bajnok/Bölény) Béla; Slovak: Belo I., c. 1016–1063) was King of Hungary from 1060 until his death. He descended from a younger branch of the Árpád dynasty and spent seventeen years in exile, probably in the court of the Kings of Poland. He came back to Hungary, in 1043, at the request of his brother, King Andrew I who assigned him the government of one third of the kingdom and proclaimed Béla his heir. When Solomon was born in 1053, his father Andrew designated him heir to the throne; Béla refused to accept this and rebelled against his brother. Although he managed to ascend to the throne after defeating King Andrew, he could not subdue Andrew's sons' opposition and immediately ensure his sons' succession. This was achieved only in 1074.

  Early years
  
  Béla was the second[1] son of Duke Vazul, a cousin of Stephen I, the first King of Hungary. His mother was probably the concubine (a daughter of a member of the Hungarian gens Tátony) of his father, who still followed pagan customs.[2]
  In exile
  
  After their father's death, the three brothers were obliged to leave the country. Fleeing first to Bohemia, they continued to Poland where Béla settled down, while his brothers, Levente and Andre continued on, settling in Kiev. In Poland, Béla served King Mieszko II Lambert of Poland and took part in the king's campaigns against the pagan Pomeran tribes. He gained the epithet "the Champion" in these campaigns. Some chronicles even claim that when a Pomeranian chief challenged Mieszko to single combat, Béla took up the challenge in the king's name. He became a successful military leader, and the king gave his daughter[3] in marriage to him. He may have been baptized just before his marriage, and his Christian name was Adalbert. After his marriage, he probably lived in Poland during the time of the interregnum when his brother-in-law, King Casimir I of Poland was obliged to leave the country.
  
  Some authors claim that during the interregnum in Poland, Béla fled to Bohemia and they identify Béla with "King Stephen's cousin", mentioned in medieval chronicles,[4] whom the Emperor Henry III, in 1043, assigned to govern the parts of Hungary he had occupied from King Samuel Aba, when the Hungarians refused to accept King Peter's rule.
  Duke of Tercia pars Regni
  
  In the meantime, after a bloody pagan revolt which ended the rule of King Peter, Béla's brother ascended the throne in Hungary as King Andrew I. However, his relations with the Holy Roman Empire remained tense, because King Peter had been not only a close ally of the Emperor Henry III, but he also had become a vassal of the Holy Roman Empire. Andrew refused to accept the suzerainty of the Emperor, ruled Hungary independently and prepared for the approaching war.[5] For this reason he invited his younger brother, the successful military leader, Béla to his court, and Béla accepted his offer.
  
  In 1048, Andrew conceded one third of Hungary (Tercia pars regni) in appanage to Béla.[6] The two brothers shared power without incident until 1053, when King Andrew fathered a son, Solomon. Thereafter, Andrew became determined to secure the throne for his son and to displace his brother. Andrew, therefore, had his son (Béla's nephew) crowned "junior king" (rex iunior) in 1057, despite an earlier agreement between the brothers according to which Béla was the heir to Andrew. Hungarian custom would also dictate that the senior male member of the family inherit the kingdom. Following the coronation, Béla left his brother's court.
  
  Two years later, according to legend, King Andrew called Béla back to his court, and placed before him a crown and a sword, representing royal and ducal power, respectively, and asked Béla to take his choice. Having been forewarned by a court official that choosing the crown would mean his death, Béla instead selected the sword. Shortly afterwards, Béla fled to Poland where he was received by King Boleslaw II the Generous, nephew of his wife.
  King of Hungary
  
  In 1060, Béla returned to Hungary and defeated King Andrew I to become the new king. After his brother's death and Béla's victory at the Theben Pass, Béla was crowned king on 6 December 1060. During his brief reign he concerned himself with crushing pagan revolts in his kingdom.
  
  Hungarian chroniclers praised Béla for introducing new currency, such as the silver denarius, and for his benevolence to the former followers of his nephew, Solomon. The terms Nobilissimus (most noble) and nobilissima familia (most noble family) have been used since the 11th century for the King of Hungary and his family, but at that time only a few, among them Béla I, which were mentioned in official documents as such.
  
  Béla died when his wooden throne collapsed.[7] After Béla's death, King Henry IV of Germany installed Solomon as the new king and Béla's sons had to flee to Poland again.
