Mieszko, Duke of Lubusz

Mieszko of Lubusz (Polish: Mieszko lubuski) (ca. 1223/27 – 1242) was a Piast Duke of Lubusz during 1241–1242. He was the second son of the Silesian duke Henry II the Pious of Wrocław, by his wife Anne Přemysl, daughter of King Ottokar I of Bohemia.

When on 9 April 1241 Duke Henry II was defeated and killed in the Mongol invasion of Poland at the Battle of Legnica, Mieszko and his older brother Bolesław II the Bald were old enough to be considered adults according to the Piast family customs. As the chroniclers of the reign of Henry II the Pious called Mieszko with the surname of Lubusz ("Lubuski"), it seems possible that his older brother Bolesław II had to cede him their father's territories in Greater Poland around Lebus as a separate district.

This, of course, was to be only temporary until their younger brothers Henry III the White and Konrad I attained the age of majority. However Mieszko wasn't alive to see this, because was dead by the beginning of 1242 and was buried in St. Peter's Church below the Lubusz Castle. He never married or had children. Shortly after, Lubusz was pledged to the Archbishopric of Magdeburg and the Margraviate of Brandenburg by his brother Bolesław II.
