Amalia of Saxony (4 April 1436 – 19 November 1501) was a princess of Saxony and by marriage Duchess of Bavaria-Landshut.

Life

Amalia was born in Meissen. She was the oldest of the children of the elector Frederick II of Saxony (1412–1464) from his marriage to Margaret (1416/7–1486), daughter of the Duke Ernest of Austria.

Amalia married on 21 March 1452 in Landshut Duke Louis IX of Bavaria-Landshut (1417–1479). Like the wedding of the son later, this marriage was celebrated with splendour. 22,000 guests were invited. In 1463, Amalia received Burghausen Castle from her husband as a residence. He also prescribed a comprehensive and rigorous Court discipline. Amalia is one of the founders of the Holy Spirit Church in Burghausen.

After the death of her husband, Amalia left Bavaria. From the compensation for her Wittum, she received 800 Rhenish florins per year from her son. Amalia acquired from her brothers and Rochlitz Castle and district, where she lived with a large entourage. Here, she rebuilt the chapel in the castle and built St. Peter's Church in the town of Rochlitz. Her most precious collection of relics was kept in the chapel. Amalia in the residence time is also the new building of St. Peter's Church in Rochlitz. Amalia essentially rebuilt the castle as a palace. The city experienced a boom during her time in office.

The Duchess died in Rochlitz in 1501 and was buried in the Cathedral of Meissen.
