  • Notes 
    • Barbara († 1601), married to the Saxon Chancellor Christian Brück since 1543.
      The mother of the poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe comes from this line, so that Lucas Cranach is the great-great-grandfather of Goethe.

      In 1552 her father Lucas Cranach the Elder followed the Duke to his new residence in Weimar.
      There he lived in the house of his daughter Barbara - the "Cranachhaus".
      (He died on October 16, 1553. He found his final resting place in the Jakobsfriedhof in Weimar.)
