The memory of Albert the Great has suffered from a great reputation as an alchemist widely misused. This legend was fought from the fifteenth century by historians of the Dominican order. Still, there arose in the fourteenth century (and after) a body of alchemical texts attributed to him. First, we try to establish the ideas and contributions of Albert to the question of alchemy. Then, we study the major alchemical treatises that have been ascribed to him. After what we establish the influence of De mineralibus on most of these texts, with the exception of receipts foreign to the ideas of Albert.
