Notes about Sibylle Elisabeth van Württemberg

Sibylle Elisabeth von Württemberg (* 10. April 1584 in Mömpelgard; † 20. Januar 1606 in Dresden) war eine Prinzessin von Württemberg und durch Heirat Herzogin von Sachsen.

Sibylle Elisabeth war die älteste Tochter des Herzogs Friedrich I. von Württemberg (1557–1608) aus dessen Ehe mit Sibylle (1564–1614), Tochter des Fürsten Joachim Ernst von Anhalt.

Die Verbindung mit den kursächsischem Haus hatte Sibylle Elisabeths Vater angestrebt, der unter den protestantischen Fürsten des Deutschen Reichs Verbündete suchte, die ihn in seinem Bestreben nach Lehnsunabhängigkeit vom habsburgischen Kaiserhaus unterstützten. Zunächst war eine Verbindung mit Johann Georgs älterem Bruder Christian vorgesehen, doch heiratete dieser 1602 eine dänische Prinzessin. Ein gleichzeitiges Eheprojekt zwischen ihrem Bruder Johann Friedrich und Johann Georgs Schwester Sophie wurde von sächsischer Seite nicht weiter vorangetrieben. Sibylle Elisabeth heiratete am 16. September 1604 in Dresden den nachmaligen Kurfürsten Johann Georg I. von Sachsen (1585–1656).

Als Wittum wurden für sie Schloss, Stadt und Amt Weißensee vorgesehen. Dem Paar wurde ein eigener Hofstaat gewährt, der hauptsächlich mit den Einnahmen aus dem Hochstift Merseburg finanziert wurde. Sibylle Elisabeth verteilte kostenlos Arzneimittel an Bedürftige und wurde als „echte Landesmutter“ beschrieben, starb aber plötzlich erst 21-jährig an einer fiebrigen Erkrankung und wurde im Freiberger Dom bestattet.
