List of heirs to Saxe-Coburg and Gotha

In the redistribution of land among the Ernestine duchies that followed the death of the last Duke of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg on 11 February 1825, the late Duke's nephew-in-law, Duke Ernst III of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, received Gotha, while he ceded Saalfeld to the Duke of Saxe-Meiningen. On 12 November 1826 he thus became Ernst I of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. The duchies of Saxe-Coburg and Saxe-Gotha remained in personal union until 1852, when a political union was effected.

This article is a list of those men who were heir-apparent or heir-presumptive to Saxe-Coburg and Gotha from 1826 until the abolition of the monarchy on 14 November 1918.

This lasted until his morganatic marriage on 9 March 1932 to Feodora von der Horst forcing Johann Leopold to cede his succession rights. The heir then became his brother.

Hubertus predeceased his father without children on 26 November 1943 during battle in World War II. His youngest brother then became heir.
