1620 Taler - John George I. The Electorate of Saxony, also known as Electoral Saxony ( German: Kurfürstentum Sachsen or Kursachsen ), was a territory of the Holy Roman Empire from 1356–1806. Its territory included the areas around the cities of Dresden, Leipzig and Chemnitz.
John George I of Saxony (born March 5, 1585, Dresden, Saxony—died Oct. 18, 1656, Dresden) was the elector of Saxony from 1611, and the “foremost Lutheran prince” of Germany, whose policies lost for Saxony opportunities for ascendancy and territorial expansion.
The electors of Saxony from John the Steadfast onwards were Lutheran until Augustus II of Saxony converted to Catholicism in order to be elected King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania. His descendants (including all Kings of Saxony) have since been Catholic.
