Henry III of Brabant (c. 1230 – February 28, 1261, Leuven) was Duke of Brabant between 1248 and his death. He was the son of Henry II of Brabant and Marie of Hohenstaufen.
The disputed territory of Lothier, the former Duchy of Lower Lorraine, was assigned to him by the German King Alfonso X of Castile. Alfonso also appointed him Imperial Vicar to advance his claims on the Holy Roman Empire.
In 1251, he married Adelaide of Burgundy (c. 1233 – October 23, 1273), daughter of Hugh IV, Duke of Burgundy, by whom he had four children:
1. Henry IV, Duke of Brabant (c. 1251 – aft. 1272)
2. John I, Duke of Brabant (1253–1294)
3. Godfrey of Brabant, Lord of Aarschot (d. July 11, 1302, Kortrijk), killed at the Battle of the Golden Spurs, married 1277 Jeanne Isabeau de Vierzon (d. aft. 1296)
4. Maria of Brabant (1256, Leuven – January 12, 1321, Murel), married at Vincennes on August 27, 1274 to King Philip III of France.
He also had one illegitimate son:
* Gilles, ancestor of the van der Balch family.
Herzog Heinrich III. von Brabant , siehe Wikipedia, Seine ersten Erfahrungen als Soldat machte er an der Seite seines Verwandten, des deutschen Gegenkönigs Wilhelm von Holland, an dessen Krönung am 1. November 1248 in Aachen er teilnahm. Im Flämischen Erbfolgekrieg hingegen unterstützte er ihn nicht, obwohl in dieser Auseinandersetzung Wilhelms Sohn und der Schwager involviert waren. Stattdessen verbündete er sich mit Wilhelm von Dampierre, Graf von Flandern, dessen Schwester er dann heiratete. Andererseits suchte er, im alten Niederlothringen den Frieden zu erhalten, was ihm auch gelang, trotz der Feindseligkeiten der Dampierres und der Avesnes sowie der Wirren, die dem Tod Wilhelms von Holland mit dem Interregnum folgte. Auf dem Sterbebett unterzeichnete er 1261 eine Charta, die seinen Untertanen größere Freiheiten gewährte.
