Ernest Gottlieb, Prince of Anhalt-Plötzkau

Ernest Gottlieb, Prince of Anhalt-Plötzkau

Ernest Gottlieb, Prince of Anhalt-Plötzkau (b. Plötzkau, 4 September 1620 - d. Plötzkau, 7 March 1654), was a German prince member of the House of Ascania and ruler of the Principality of Anhalt-Plötzkau.

He was the eldest son of Augustus, Prince of Anhalt-Plötzkau by his wife Sibylle, daughter of John George I, Count of Solms-Laubach.

Life

In 1653, after the death of his father, Ernest Gottlieb inherited Plötzkau alongside with his younger brothers Lebrecht and Emmanuel; but because they succeeded his father in the regency over Anhalt-Köthen on behalf of their cousin William Louis, Ernest Gottlieb took the full government over their principality.

His reign lasted only seven months until his death. Because he never married or had children, was succeded by his brothers and co-rulers.
