John Casimir, Count of Erbach-Breuberg

Content sourced from Wikipedia, licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0.

John Casimir, Count of Erbach-Breuberg (1584–1627), was a German noble from the House of Erbach who ruled Breuberg, Wildenstein and Fürstenau. He was born in Erbach as the eleventh child of George III, Count of Erbach-Breuberg, and his second wife, Anna of Solms-Laubach. John Casimir never married and had no known children.

When his father died in 1606, John Casimir and his surviving brothers divided the Erbach lands; he received Breuberg and Wildenstein. In 1623, after his eldest brother Frederick Magnus died without heirs, the brothers divided his domains and John Casimir obtained Fürstenau. He died in Schweidnitz at age 41 and was buried in Michelstadt. Because he had no children, his lands were shared by his brothers after his death.
