Ernest Augustus (born Nov. 20, 1629, Herzberg am Harz Castle, Hanover [Germany]—died Jan. 23, 1698, Herrenhausen Castle) was a duke (from 1679) and elector (from 1692) of Hanover, father of George Louis, who became George I, king of Great Britain.
Born a landless cadet, Ernest Augustus succeeded in having the House of Hanover raised to electoral dignity in 1692. As a result, Princess Sophia became Electress of Hanover, the title by which she is best remembered.
