Henry I was the second Margrave of Austria. He ruled in the last part of the 10th Century and into the early 11th Century. Like many people in early medieval times, Henry had few details of his early life recorded. His father was the first Magrave of Austria, Leopold the Illlustrious, and his mother was Richardis of Sualafeldgau.
The Margraviate of Austria ( Latin: Marcha Austriae; German: Markgrafschaft Österreich) was a medieval frontier march, centered along the river Danube, between the river Enns and the Vienna Woods ( Wienerwald ), within the territory of modern Austrian provinces of Upper Austria and Lower Austria. It existed from c. 970 to 1156.
At the time of Henry the Strong"s investiture in 996, the land between the Bisamberg and the March river had not yet been settled by Germans. In 1002, Emperor Henry II granted two land areas to the margrave: one of 18 square miles southwest on Vienna, and another of 22 hides between the Kamp and the March rivers.
