Rudolf III of Burgundy, died September 6, 1032, King of Burgundy (993–1032). The last king of an independent Burgundy, he was the son of Conrad , King of Burgundy.

Rudolf's reign was marked with turbulence. Unable to placate the increasingly powerful nobility, he also had to deal with encroachments of power on the part of Otto-William, Count of Besançon until 995, and Duke of Burgundy thereafter, as well as Henry II, King of Germany. Henry succeeded in forcing Rudolf to name him as his successor in 1016. When Henry died, the new king, Conrad II, also forced Rudolf to make him his heir. Rudolf died in 1032 with no surviving issue; Conrad claimed the Kingdom of Burgundy and incorporated it as a third kingdom alongside Germany and Italy within the Empire.
