First marriage
Anna first married in 1295 in Graz. Her husband was Herman, Margrave of Brandenburg-Salzwedel. They had four children:
- Jutta of Brandenburg (1297–1353), heiress of Coburg, married to Count Henry VIII of Henneberg
- John (1302–1317), succeeded his father, but died young
- Matilde of Brandenburg (died 1323) married Henry IV the Faithful
- Agnes of Brandenburg (1297–1334), heiress of the Altmark, married with margrave Waldemar of Brandenburg (1281–1381) and in 1319 to Duke Otto of Brunswick-Göttingen (1290–1344).
In 1308, Herman died, and their son John succeeded him.
Second marriage
In 1310 Anna married Henry VI the Good, Duke of Wrocław,[1][better source needed] son of Henry V the Fat and his wife Elisabeth of Greater Poland.[citation needed] They had three daughters:
- Elisabeth of Brieg (ca. 1311 – 20 February? 1328), married before 10 January 1322 to Duke Konrad I of Oleśnica.
- Euphemia of Brieg (Ofka) (ca. 1312 – 21 March after 1384), married before 29 November 1325 to Duke Bolesław the Elder of Niemodlin (Falkenberg).
- Margaret of Brieg (ca. 1313 – 8 March 1379), Abbess of St. Clara in Wrocław (1359).
Anna died in 1327 in Legnica. When Henry died ten years later without any male heirs, Wrocław was merged with the Bohemian crown.
