專家說明

Albert (1828-1902) was a German King of Saxony and a member of the House of Wettin. He was the eldest son of Prince John, who succeeded his brother Frederick Augustus II on the Saxon throne as King John in 1854, and his wife Amalie Auguste of Bavaria.
Before becoming king Albert enjoyed a successful military career, leading Saxon troops in the First Schleswig War, the Austro-Prussian War, and the Franco-Prussian War. As king he took little interest in politics concerning himself mainly with military affairs. He married Caroline, granddaughter of King Gustav IV Adolf of Sweden, in 1853. They had no children and Albert was succeeded by his brother George.
