Buste du Chevalier Roi Albert Ier de Belgique
Highlight • Other
On 2 October 1900, he married Elisabeth in Bavaria, with whom he shared a humanist and pacifist vision of society. The king and queen quickly formed a popular couple and gave a modernised image of the monarchy, whose style they renewed. Coming from a lineage with Germanic roots and the husband of a German princess, the king chose in 1914 to defend his country, which had been created neutral, and to fight against the German invasion, affirming the Belgian character of his dynasty.
From the First World War onwards, Albert became the subject of a veritable myth that extended far beyond the Belgian borders, garnering the warlike nicknames of Soldier King or Knight King. After the armistice of 1918, the king frequently intervened in Belgian political matters. In 1919, while the Constitution limited his powers, he succeeded during the Lophem interview in convincing the most eminent Belgian politicians of the need to adopt pure and simple universal male suffrage.
The king advocated the effective equality of the two national languages, the recognition of freedom of association, the extension of social legislation and the development of science. In terms of international relations, he made long official and private trips abroad: the United States in 1919, Brazil the following year, India in 1925, not forgetting the Congo in 1928 and 1932 and finally Syria and Palestine in 1933.
A mountaineering enthusiast, with several important ascents to his credit, he died in 1934 while climbing in the Meuse Valley in Belgium. His eldest son succeeded him under the name of Leopold III.
