Empress Go-Sakuramachi was one of the two reigning empresses of the Edo period.

A daughter of Emperor Sakuramachi (r. 1735-1747), she took the throne in 1762 following the abdication of her brother, Emperor Momozono.

Empress Go-Sakuramachi then abdicated in 1770, and was succeeded by her nephew, a son of Emperor Momozono, who took the throne as Emperor Go-Momozono.
