Yaroslav III Yaroslavich (Russian: Ярослав Ярославич; 1230–1271)[2] was the first Prince of Tver from 1247,[3][4] and Grand Prince of Vladimir from 1263 until his death in 1271.[5][6][7] All the later princes of Tver descended from him.[1][8]
Yaroslav and his son Mikhail presided over Tver's transformation into one of the greatest centres of power in medieval Russia which would compete with Moscow.[9]
