Konrad I Mazowiecki

Konrad of Masovia (1187 - 1247, Polish: Konrad Mazowiecki) was Duke of Masovia, son of Casimir II of Poland ("the Just") and Helen, princess of Moravia. After his father's death in 1194, he was brought up by his mother and in 1202 he received Masovia and Kuyavia. He married the Russian princess Agafia.

Konrad tried unsuccessfully to defeat the pagan Prussians on the borders of his lands. In 1226 he invited the military order of the Teutonic Knights to Prussia to fight the pagans. He also granted lands to the Teutonic Order and the Order of Dobrin. Konrad is often regarded poorly because his actions began the process whereby the Teutonic Knights came to control much of the Baltic coastline through their monastic state.
