Adalbert von Entringen or Adalbertus de Antringen was a noble gentleman in Entringen in the 11th and 12th centuries .

Live and act

Adalbert von Entringen was a great-grandson of Lanzelin . He was a relative of Landold von Entringen and the noble founders of the St. Georgen Monastery in the Black Forest Hezelo († 1088) and Hesso († 1114) from the Reichenau Vogt family. Hezelo made sure that if his only son Hermann died without a legitimate descendant, the inheritance that belonged to him and his son would be placed under the martyr St. George's. So he called his relatives together, namely Landold and Adelbert von Entringen, because the next ones would otherwise be his and his son's heirs. He and his son surrendered everything that they rightfully owned, both people and property, with the exception of what they owned in Oggelshausen , to the honesty of these entrant relatives and obliged them that if his son died they would keep the courtiers, but the whole rest goes to the monastery of St. George including the owed rights. Adalbert von Entringen was mentioned in writing as the first owner of Hohenentringen around 1075 . He transferred part of his property on September 11, 1111 before Duke Berthold III. and his followers in Kleinbasel . He fulfilled the promise made to Hezelo in 1084 and gave property to the St. Georgen monastery in Degernau and Ingoldingen for Hezelo and his son Hermann in the presence of the following witnesses: Duke Berthold III. von Zähringen , Konrad, Rudolf and Berthold von Neuenburg, Friedrich II. von Wolfach and his son Arnold, Vogt Konrad von Waldkirch, Erchenbold von Buesenheim and Erchengar von Rundstal.

funeral

During archaeological excavations in the area of ​​the choir and the nave of the Evangelical Parish Church of St. Michael in Entringen, three graves were found in 1967/68 by the then State Office for the Preservation of Monuments in Tübingen. These are in a prominent position on the central axis of the nave, which in the 11th century was only conceivable for high-ranking people in view of a ban on burials in the church. The early Romanesque second phase of construction could therefore have been a burial church for the Lords of Entringen .

The building has certain similarities with the churches in the area around Cluny in Burgundy , where comparable cruciform churches are not unusual at this time. Since Adalbert von Entringen, attested in 1075, was demonstrably closely related to the reformed monastery Hirsau , it is conceivable that architectural elements were transferred from Cluny to Entringen in this way.
