Princess Gisela Agnes of Anhalt-Köthen

However, Gisela Agnes claimed her allodial title and took the case to the Reichskammergericht.

Prince John Augustus of Anhalt-Zerbst mediated and a compromise was reached.

She also received her father's collection of guns and coins and another 32000taler for the estates of Prosigk, Klepzig and Köthen.

She married on 25 May 1737 in Bernburg her cousin, Prince Leopold II Maximilian of Anhalt-Dessau (1700–1751).

The death of his wife hit Leopold II so hard that he, already in delicate health, died only eight months later.
