Princess Anna Monika Pia of Saxony, Duchess of Saxony (German: Prinzessin Anna Monika Pia von Sachsen, Herzogin zu Sachsen;[1] 4 May 1903[1] – 8 February 1976[1]) was the seventh and youngest child of Frederick Augustus III of Saxony and his wife Archduchess Luise of Austria, Princess of Tuscany and a younger sister of both Georg, Crown Prince of Saxony, and Friedrich Christian, Margrave of Meissen.[1]

Early life[edit]

While pregnant with Anna, her mother Luise left Saxony on 9 December 1902 without her children. Anna was born in Lindau, Bavaria, during her parents' separation; after her mother's second marriage in 1907, Luise sent the child to the royal court in Dresden where she was raised with her five siblings by her father Frederick Augustus.

Marriage and issue[edit]

Anna married Archduke Joseph Francis of Austria, eldest son of Archduke Joseph August of Austria and his wife Princess Auguste Maria of Bavaria, on 4 October 1924 at Schloss Sibyllenort in Sibyllenort, Silesia, Germany.[1] Anna and Joseph Francis had eight children:[1]

Fifteen years after the death of Joseph Francis in Carcavelos, Portugal, on 25 September 1957, Anna married Reginald Kazanjian (1905–1990) in a civil ceremony on 28 July 1971 in Geneva, Switzerland, and in a religious ceremony on 9 September 1971 in Veyrier, Switzerland.[1] On 8 February 1976, she died in Munich, Germany, aged 72.
