Their story
Albert Frederick of Prussia, born in Kaliningrad in 1553, inherited the Duchy of Prussia, a significant territory within the Holy Roman Empire. His reign, which concluded with his death in Primorsk in 1618, was marked by the challenges of governing a principality in a period of religious and political upheaval. Though details of his personal life are not extensively documented, his ducal title signifies his role as a sovereign ruler. His legacy is primarily understood through his position as the last Duke from the Hohenzollern line to directly rule Prussia before its union with Brandenburg.
