Liutpold III "der Heilige" VON BABENBERG, Markgraf of Austria
- Born: Between 1080 and 1086
- Married: Early 1106
- Died: 15 Nov 1136
 Research Notes:
The Auctarium Vindobonense records in 1096 that "Liutpoldus successit dictus pius, sextus marchio" but does not specify his relationship with his predecessor. The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. The Continuatio Claustroneoburgensis records that "Liupoldus marchio Austrie accinctus est gladio" in 1104, an event recorded in 1099 in the Continuatio Prædictorum Vindobonensium. It is assumed that this knighting ceremony was performed around the age of 18, which means that Liutpold was born in the range [1080/86]. This appears corroborated by the same ceremony being recorded for Liutpold's oldest son Adalbert in 1125...
He succeeded his father in 1095 as LEOPOLD III "der Heilige" Markgraf of Austria. He founded the Cistercian monastery of Heiligenkreuz in 1133.
The Continuatio Claustroneoburgensis records the death "1136 XVII Kal Dec" of "Liupoldus marchio Austriæ". The necrology of Nonnberg records the death "XVII Kal Dec" of "Liupoldus marchio". The necrology of Kloster Neuburg records the death "XVII Kal Dec 1136" of "Liupoldus marchio fundator huius templi". He was killed while hunting. Canonised 2 Feb 1485. 1
