Part of the Duchy of Saxe-Weimar was given to [[Bernhard II, Duke of Saxe-Jena|Bernhard]], the fourth son of [[Wilhelm, Duke of Saxe-Weimar]] in [[1672]]. The second duke had no male [[heirs]] to inherit the title, so the territory was taken back by [[Saxe-Weimar]] when the second duke died in [[1690]]. . == Dukes of Saxe-Jena == * [[Bernhard II, Duke of Saxe-Jena|Bernhard]] ([[1672]] – [[1678]]) * [[Johann Wilhelm, Duke of Saxe-Jena|Johann Wilhelm]] ([[1678]] – [[1690]]) ''Reincorporated into [[Saxe-Weimar]]'' {{Ernestine duchies}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Saxe-Jena}} [[Category:States of the Holy Roman Empire]] [[Category:Thuringia]]
