In 1260, Anna married Louis II, Duke of Bavaria.[1] This was Louis' second marriage after his violent first marriage to Marie of Brabant, Louis had Marie executed because he believed she was having an affair. Louis' first marriage was childless.

- Maria (born 1261, date of death unknown), a nun in Marienburg abbey
- Ludwig (13 September 1267 – 23 November 1290), killed at a tournament at Nuremberg.
