Albero V. from Puchheim
Albero V. Herr von Puchheim (* around 1310; † after September 24, 1383 was also called Albero III. Or Albert III. Herr von Puchheim. Both the name and numbering differ depending on the author. In the older version in the "Adler" he is called Albert III, but in the more recent presentation of Christoph Tepperberg's dissertation he is called Albero V. At his time, Albero V was one of the leading Austrian noblemen in the gentry class, who was an important fiefdom holder, adviser, general, statesman and lender served three Dukes of Austria from the House of Habsburg : Albrecht II the Wise , Duke of Austria from 1330 to 1358), Rudolf IV. "the founder", Duke of Austria from 1358 to 1365 and Albrecht III. , Duke of Austria from 1365 to 1383. He was the hereditary supreme truchess in the Duchy of Austria and entrusted with important government offices, such as governor in the Duchy of Styria and as governor in the Austrian foothills in Swabia and Alsace and also took on diplomatic missions for the dukes. In addition, he worked for his brother, Pilgrim II von Puchheim , Prince Archbishop of Salzburg (from 1365 to 1396) and also as Governor in the Prince Archbishopric of Salzburg . As lord of the lordships of Raab an der Thaya , Litschau , Heidenreichstein , Illmau , Dobersberg etc., his property encompassed almost the entire area of the historic county of Raab in the northern Waldviertel in Lower Austria and, thanks to further acquisitions, he was one of the most important fiefs of the Dukes of Austria. Albero V. was the nearer progenitor of the house of Puchheim , which split into several lines, to Litschau , to Heidenreichstein , to Raabs an der Thaya , to Horn to Göllersdorf etc. and with Count Franz Anton von Puchheim, Bishop of Wiener Neustadt ( † 1718) became extinct in the male line. The family name passed to the Schönborn-Buchheim house through adoption in 1711 .
origin
The origin of this originally noble noble family of the Lords of Puchheim is not easy to determine, as it appeared early in different parts of the country - for example in Salzburg, in today's Bavaria, in Attergau in Upper Austria and a little later in Styria , with the family members each according to their different Ansitzen called, for example after Weng, after Schalchham or after the original castle Puchheim, which still exists today (today part of the municipality of Attnang-Puchheim in Upper Austria). The original focus is seen today because of the early and close relationships in the area of the Prince Archbishopric of Salzburg .
Progenitor
Udalichus nobilis vir de Wenge is regarded as the progenitor, who around 1070 on the orders of King Heinrich IV donated a woman named Grotta with her descendants to the Ranshofen monastery for an annual service of five pfennigs. Andreas von Meiller moved the date of this first mention to the time 1115–1120, and thus to the time of the reign of Emperor Heinrich V , as the witnesses already appear by their surnames. In 1108, Pilgrim and Hartmann von Puchheim appear as witnesses to Margrave Ottokar von Styria (ruled 1082–1122) in his letter of foundation for the Garsten Abbey in what is now Upper Austria
In 1133, "Pilgrimus nobilis homo de Pucheiman" appears in a document from Archbishop Conrad I of Abenberg of Salzburg as the owner of several Salzburg fiefdoms. A year later he appears as "Pilgrimus de Wenge homo liber" in a document with which he hands over the bridge over the Vöckla to Archbishop Konrad von Salzburg.
The status of the noble liberty was lost at the end of the 12th century when the sex entered the ministry of the Styrian Ottokare .
Even at the time of the Babenbergs, the Lords of Puchheim were among the narrow circle of leading families in Austria and are therefore considered to be one of the so-called " Apostles " of the Austrian gentry.
The grandpa
The grandfather of Albero V., Albero II. Von Puchheim (cl. 1242; † 1308), was married in 1258 to Agnes von Liebenstein, a niece of the Bishop of Passau , Otto von Lonsdorf (ruled 1254-1265). He experienced the power struggles for the succession of the first Austrian ruling dynasty, the later so-called Babenbergs , for which several pretenders fought until Ottokar II. Přemysl (from 1253 King of Bohemia ) in 1251 in Austria, 1261 in Styria and 1269 in Carinthia enforced as duke, which he legitimized with the marriage in 1252 with Margaret of Austria , a sister of the last duke of her family, Friedrich II. The arguable of Austria († 1246).
In view of the acute threat to his rule from the Roman-German King Rudolf I of Habsburg, King Ottokar II. Přemysl tried to win the support of important Austrian nobles. He also tried to help Albero II von Puchheim by transferring him - in his capacity as Duke of Austria - on October 6, 1276 in the town of Freistadt in Upper Austria, the important court office of the Supreme Truchess in Austria and all of those associated with it Pertinenzen, the lords of Feldsberg (today in the Czech Republic) and Orth an der Donau (in Lower Austria) enfeoffed. How urgent this action was is shown by the fact that it took place one day after King Rudolf arrived in Linz with his troops on October 5, 1276 ! Albero II von Puchheim was therefore obviously one of the last Austrian loyalists of King Ottokar II.
However, this did not prevent Albero II von Puchheim from immediately following the battle of Dürnkrut and Jedenspeigen (August 26, 1278) into the allegiance of the victor, King Rudolf I von Habsburg, and becoming one of his important followers and advisers, whereby he was also confirmed as Supreme Truchsess in the Duchy of Austria. Therefore, from 1277 onwards, Albero II frequently appears in documents from King Rudolf I and later from Albrecht I as a witness. When King Rudolf I left Vienna in 1281 and appointed his son Albrecht von Habsburg as Reich Governor, Albero II von Puchheim was one of the “sworn councilors” from Austria's leading families who stood by Albrecht I's side. In 1282 Duke Albrecht I enfeoffed him with the Clusen Castle and with the office and income of Bad Ischl . Albero II was married to Agnes von Liebenstein.
The father
Albero's father, Pilgrim IV. Herr von Puchheim (* end of the 13th century, cl. 1306; † after February 7, 1341, before January 10, 1343), was the chief chief executive in Austria and the first of his house to try to get bigger Acquire property in Austria under the Enns (Lower Austria). As a Truchsess of Austria he already owned the associated dominions Feldsberg and Orth on the Danube . In addition, he acquired a. a. Mallebarn (in the municipality of Sierndorf ), in 1317 the Göllersdorf fiefdom of Nuremberg and 1317 the fortress Weyerburg . In 1325 he acquired the court and the toll to Schwechat (in Lower Austria, near Vienna) from Hadmar and Mertlein den Stuchsen von Trautmannsdorf as a pledge of 900 pounds Vienna pfennigs.
Pilgrim IV von Puchheim's first marriage was Elisabeth Herrin von Stubenberg († July 15, 1315), a daughter of Ulrich Herrin von Stubenberg on Kapfenberg and Guttenberg (in the municipality of Grafenschlag in the Zwettl district ) and Elisabeth Countess von Pfannberg († after 28 September 1301) a daughter of Heinrich Graf von Pfannberg
Pilgrim IV von Puchheim married Kunigunde Stuchs von Trautmannstorf († 1325), a daughter of Hadmar the Elder Stuchs on Trautmannsdorf and Neusiedel, († 1352) and Kunigunde von Plankenstein , († 1328) a daughter of Otto dem , in 1317 as a second marriage Elderly from Plankenstein to Liebeck .:
Life
youth
The exact date of birth of Albero V. von Puchheim is not known. According to Christoph Tepperberg, he was probably born in 1314 at the latest, as his mother Elisabeth Herrin von Stubenberg was said to have died in 1315.
siblings
Albero V. had three siblings:
- Anna von Puchheim († 1350), ⚭ 1318 Gundacker von Losenstein auf Gschwendt, district judge of Velden († 1347)); He was the progenitor of the main line of his house, which went out in 1692.
- Heinrich IV. Von Puchheim († 1341), field captain of Duke Albrecht II. , To whom he brought 500 Hungarians in the war against the Zurich people , ∞ 1325 Elisabeth von Rauhenstein, a daughter of Albero (Albert) the elder of Rauhenstein and Clara. A marriage through which later u. a. the lords of Rauhenstein and Weierburg came to the Puchheim.
- Margaretha von Puchheim, († 1343), ∞ 1326 Gottschalk the Younger von Neidberg (Neuberg an der Mürz), cl. 1360, son of Dietrich von Neidberg († 1299) and Kunigunde von Plankenstein (daughter of Otto the Elder von Plankenstein. He was the progenitor of his family, which with Johann von Neidberg auf Neudau etc., treasurer in Styria, died out in 1483 in the male line.
Albero also had half-siblings from the second marriage of his father Pilgrim to Kunigunde Stuchs von Trauttmannstorf († 1325).
- Hans I. von Puchheim (cl. 1343; † 1376) in Blumenau, Lichtenwörth , St. Peter, St. Georgen, Fürchtenwerth, Achenau, Göllersdorf and Traiskirchen , who built the Burgau fortress in the Lafnitz valley in Eastern Styria, ⚭ before 1365 Sophie von Chapels .
His only son Hans III. von Puchheim died unmarried probably in 1394, his daughter, Elisabeth von Puchheim, ⚭ I. the "mighty court master" Hans von Liechtenstein on Nikolsburg , Feldsberg , Pernstein, Eisgrub (today Lednice in the Czech Republic ), Dürnholz, Lundenburg , Neuhaus, Reichersdorf, Kastendorf, Pottendorf , Mühlbach u.

- Pilgrim II of Puchheim (* around 1330; † April 5, 1396), was probably the most important representative of the family. He studied in what was then the papal residence in Avignon , which may have been suggested to him by the father-in-law of his older brother Albero V. von Puchheim, Count Paul von Mattersburg (Nagymarton), who was the royal Hungarian ambassador to Pope Clement VI there in 1343 and 1346 . (ruled from 1342 to 1352). Pilgrim II became canon of Salzburg and ruled from 1366 to 1396 as one of the most important Prince Archbishops of Salzburg under whose leadership the province of Salzburg reached its greatest extent. He was probably also identical to the monk of Salzburg , who is considered to be one of the most important song writers and composers of the late Middle Ages .
- Dorothea von Puchheim († after 1387), ⚭ I. Wolfger von Dachsberg , ⚭ II. Georg Herr von Liechtenstein-Nikolsburg. († 1398) (no children)
- Margarethe von Puchheim, ⚭ Otto Herr von Liechtenstein-Murau.
Early years
There is hardly any news about the early youth of Albero von Puchheim. He lost his mother Elisabeth von Stubenberg as a toddler in 1315 and grew up under his stepmother, Kunigunde Stuchs von Trauttmannsdorf, together with his siblings and half-siblings, probably in the family castle of the house in Puchheim Castle in Upper Austria.
Albero (V.) first appeared in a document in 1331 as the leader of a military auxiliary contingent of twelve helmets in the war against Bavaria . For this service his sovereign princes, Dukes Albrecht II (* 1298; † 1358) and Otto der Fröhliche (1301–1339) | Otto der Fröhliche (* 1301; † 1339) of Austria pledged the taxes of the citizens of Wiener Neustadt to his father in the amount of 190 pounds Viennese pfennigs.
On Palm Sunday 1337, Pilgrim IV von Puchheim and his two sons Heinrich I and Albero V gave the abbot Conrad II von Michelbeuern and the convent an estate for the foundation of an anniversary for them and their descendants with vigil and mass at Sankt-Achatius- Day.
Around 1340 Albero was mentioned together with his younger brother Hans I. von Puchheim as a member of the Societas Templois founded by Duke Otto the Merry of Austria . This knight society was created in 1337 on the basis of the Templar Order, which was dissolved in 1312, on the initiative of Duke Otto in the St. George's Chapel in the Augustinian Church in Vienna and was intended to serve campaigns in pagan Prussia, but this society only existed for 40 years.
In the same year 1340, his father Pilgrim IV (II.) Married him to Anna, a daughter of the Hungarian Count Paul von Mattersdorf-Forchtenstein .
Elder of his house
After the death of his older brother Heinrich IV. Von Puchheim in 1341, Albero was the eldest surviving son and followed his father's death in 1343 as senior of the house and as chief trustee in the Duchy of Austria. When the inheritance was divided, he received a large part of the family property, so u. a. the fortress Puchheim with the associated church fiefs, the permanent house and the village of Reitzenschlag , the sentence of the regional court in the Danube valley and the villages of Ober- and Unter- Mallebarn .
In connection with this inheritance, Albero, as Supreme Truchsess in Austria, donated an anniversary for his father, for his mother and for all his ancestors and descendants on St. Michael's Day (29 September) 1343 in the Benedictine Abbey of Michaelbeuern , and endowed this foundation with an estate in Thalhausen.
Subsequently, Albero appeared in various documents as a witness in economic or legal transactions.
Albero von Puchheim, the highest head chef in Austria, Anna, his wife and Johann, his brother, sold the Schwaige an der Chisling and an der Tonne annually on May 13, 1344 in Vienna to Abbot Ulrich and the Admont Abbey for 250 pounds pfennigs 300 cheeses, one Schwaige “on the Perg”, one “on the Graben” (near Seckau or Köflach ) an estate at Kalwang , one at “Revnerdoerflein”, properties at Mosenstein an der Ganith, at the Cholhuebe and the Alpe in the Ahornach.
In the same year Albero (v) bought from Kaspar von Corbergh and his sons Erasmus and Ulrich Saubersdorf (now part of the municipality of St. Egyden am Steinfeld ) Göpfritzschlag (now part of the municipality Karlstein an der Thaya ), Weissbach , a part of the Losberger Waldes as well as some fiefdoms in the county of Regnitz and von Herdeggen von Pettau and Otto von Lichtenstein-Murau some goods in Göllersdorf .
Under Duke Albrecht II of Austria
In 1330 Duke Albrecht II came to the government of the Austrian hereditary lands together with his youngest brother, Duke Otto the Merry .
Marriage mediation for Duke Rudolf IV.
Even at a very young age, Albero held a privileged position among the country's aristocrats, as he won the trust of Duke Albrecht II of Austria, who ruled from 1335 to 1358 and entrusted him with confidential and honorable missions.
Albero was empowered by Duke Albrecht II in 1343, the marriage of his eldest son, the later Duke Rudolf IV of Austria - then four years old - with the then just one-year-old Katharina von Luxemburg (* 1342 in Prague ; † April 26th 1395 in Vienna), the then only daughter of Margrave Karl of Moravia (later Emperor Karl IV. ) From the House of Luxemburg . Duke Albrecht issued him a letter of authorization with which Albero went to France, where the marriage negotiations took place in Termes Castle near Toul .
Albero testified on July 14, 1343 at the Palace of Termez as an envoy of the Duke Albrecht II. Of the Elders of Austria that he had the power, the marriage alliance between Duke Rudolf IV. Of Austria with Catherine, the daughter of the Margrave Karl of Moravia complete and to conjure up. A letter from the Margrave Karl of Moravia to Duke Albrecht II has been received from the same date and place, in which the latter names and declares himself the firstborn of the King of Bohemia; On that day, in the presence of his father, King ( Johann von Böhmen ) and the ducal ambassador Albert von Puchheim, he swore on the gospel to give his daughter Katharina to Duke Rudolf of Austria as wife, if he could obtain papal dispensation
Accordingly, Duke Albrecht promised in a letter dated December 9, 1344 from Vienna to marry Margrave Karl von Moravia his son Duke Rudolf to his daughter Katharina, provided the Holy Father gave permission.
Albero was probably there when Emperor Charles IV came to Vienna in 1356 to negotiate with Duke Albrecht II about the dowry of his daughter Katharina. This wedding actually took place in July 1357.
Sculptures by this pair of rulers, who are important for Austrian history, are located at the ends of the west facade of St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna .
Captain von Laa an der Thaya
On May 10, 1347, Albero was recorded as captain of the princely town of Laa an der Thaya , Mistelbach district in Lower Austria, and as such he took over the Duke's agendas by approving the sale of a princely fief. Mainly, however, he had to take care of border feuds with neighboring Bohemian lords.
Relocation to Austria under the Enns
In 1348 the territorial focus of ownership of the Lords of Puchheim was relocated from Upper Austria to Lower Austria by exchanging the family's own ancestral seat - the Puchheim lordship and castle - for important fiefdoms owned by the Dukes of Austria.
This took place on October 15 in Vienna, where a “khauf und widerwexl” (purchase and exchange contract) came from Albrecht II of Habsburg, Duke of Austria, Steyr ( Styria ) and Carinthia and his loyal “Albrechte von Puchhaimb” who gave the Duke the - freelance - fortress Puchheim in Upper Austria (today in the parish of Attnang-Puchheim ) including the courts, lent goods, all nobles, the two church loans to the church in Vöcklabruck and also to the church in Puchenau and all other affiliations and instead, according to land law in Austria, the two lordships and feasts Litschau and Heidenreichstein - which had previously been in his pledge possession - received as a right fief, but without nobles, and the church fiefs at Raabs an der Thaya and those at Heidenreichstein, without the bailiwick over the Monasteries and places of worship that had previously been part of the festivals.
As a feudal property, this new property was legally of lower value than the abandoned free property, but it was considerably more extensive than the abandoned ancestral seat and also gave Albero V greater influence at the Viennese court. The fact that this property was located in the northern Waldviertel and thus directly on the Bohemian border was not unproblematic, which repeatedly led to territorial disputes and hostilities between the rulers in the border area between Austria and Bohemia. In a feud between Austrian and Bohemian lords in 1352, Albero von Puchheim was led by Wilhelm von Landstein Oberstburggrat in Prague, Eberhard and Heinrich von Herren von Walsee against the Bohemian lords Heinrich II von Neuhaus († 1363), Stefan von Sternberg , Jost I. von Rosenberg and Jesko von Michelsberg was supported. Through the intervention of King Charles IV of Bohemia and Margrave John of Moravia , the conflict was settled in 1352, peace conditions were established and reconciliation was confirmed.
War with Zurich
Albero von Puchheim, who had already played an important role as a confidante and advisor at the court of Duke Albrecht II for several years, also took on military duties. For example, in 1353, when he commanded 500-strong Hungarian auxiliary troops during the siege of the city in the war against Zurich , which had joined the Swiss Confederation in 1351 to secure its independence
Governor in the Austrian foreland
In the same year 1353 he was appointed bailiff in Aargau , Thurgau , Alsace , Sundgau , Breisgau , in Glarus and in the Black Forest by Duke Albrecht II , whereby the administration of the entire Austrian foothills was concentrated in the hands of Puchheim. In fact, the new bailiff succeeded in dividing the allied Swiss and on July 25, 1355, to secure a peace favorable to the Habsburgs from the people of Zurich.
On April 29, 1356 Albert von Puchheim extended the peace treaty with the city of Zurich as bailiff and captain in the Austrian foreland and concluded an alliance that was valid until November 11, 1361, which was confirmed by Duke Albrecht on June 1, 1356. In doing so, he brought about a fundamental change in the Habsburg position in Switzerland, which was lasting, since as a result there was essentially calm in the foothills for thirty years.
In the same year, Duke Albrecht II commissioned his Landvogt Albero von Puchheim to end a dispute about the Ungeld zu Altkirch between him, Johann Peter von Buchs and Hermann von Landenberg von Greifensee the Elder by immediately handing the ungeld over to Peter von Buchs and him Give 1000 pounds of Basel pennies, or if they weren't there, transfer 500 pounds from Alsace and Sundgau and 500 pounds to the Tattenried estate (Seigneurie de Delle).
On March 29, 1357, Duke Albrecht II announced to Albero von Puchheim, as bailiff in Sundgau, that he had transferred the valley and the office at Masmünster to Johann von Waltpach, a citizen of Basel, for 5000 guilders and that Puchheim should proceed in accordance with the Pfandbrief .
On September 5, 1357, Duke Albrecht II added 1125 guilders, which he owed Albero von Puchheim for the office of governor in Swabia , in Breisgau , Thurgau and Sundgau , to the tolls of Neudorf and Salhenau.
Puchheim last appeared in a document on March 29, 1357 as governor and was recalled on September 5 of this year.
Lender of the sovereign
Thanks to his considerable fortune, Albero was also able to render the sovereign princes good service in financial matters. On August 13, 1353, Duke Albrecht II redeemed a debt of 800 pounds pfennigs from Ulrich, Herr von Stubenberg, which he immediately pledged to Albert von Puchheim for 1000 pounds of Viennese pfennigs. Hormayr even mentions 1,800 pounds that Puchheim paid , instead of the 800 that Duke Albrecht II had to spend.
On April 5, 1356, Duke Albrecht II pledged the Salenau and Neudorf tolls to Albero von Puchheim, his governor in the Austrian foothills, for 700 guilders
On June 7, 1356, Duke Albert II confirmed that Albero von Puchheim had lent him 4,500 pounds of Viennese pfennigs, for which he pledged the castle and the court of Hainburg an der Donau to him , which he would get back if he received them within two years lords of Maissau pledged Burg Raabs an der Thaya redeems and Alber of Puchheim displaced
In the same year 1356, Duke Albrecht II ordered his Landvogt Albero von Puchheim to hand over the Ungeld von Altkirch - which was in feud with him, the Landvogt and Hermann von Landenberg - to Johann Peter von Buchs and to give him 1000 pounds of Basel pfennigs give, or if they were not available, to transfer £ 500 from Alsace and Sundgau and £ 500 from the Lordship of Tattenried (Seigneurie de Delle).
On March 29, 1357, Duke Albrecht II informed his governor that he had transferred the valley and office to Masmünster to Johann von Walpach, citizen of Basel, for 59,000 guilders and that he should proceed in accordance with the Pfandbrief.
On September 5, 1357, Duke Albrecht II instructs Albrecht von Puchheim to pay the tolls for Neudorf and Sahlenau for the 1125 guilders that he owed him for his office as governor of the Austrian foreland.
On March 3, 1358, Albero von Puchheim succeeded in significantly expanding his property, as on this day Duke Albrecht II testified that with his will Albero von Puchheim von Wernhart von Maissau, Burg and Markt Ragtz ( Raabs an der Thaya ) and the market Dobersberg with accessories for 300 MIS and for 1000 marks silver Viennese weight, then for 150 and 460 pounds Viennese pfennigs, Albero acquired the headquarters of the former county of Raabs, which was largely under his control, with Raabs an der Thaya until 1702 His family owned it.
Diplomatic missions
Albero von Puchheim had an important political and military position at the court of Duke Albrecht II as his councilor and was also entrusted with important diplomatic tasks.
Ambassador to Bohemia
While he was still in his role as bailiff in the foothills, Duke Albrecht II appointed him as his plenipotentiary on February 20, 1356, in order to negotiate with several other high-ranking nobles with Emperor Charles IV as King of Bohemia about the settlement of various border feuds that between Austrian and Bohemian gentlemen passed.
Dispute mediator in Hungary
In January 1356, King Ludwig I of Hungary (ruled 1342 to 1382) visited Duke Albrecht II of Austria, where an alliance of mutual assistance was concluded and notarized. The duke then accompanied his royal guest to Raab , where the latter took over the mediation of some disputes that the duke had with the emperor - probably because of border issues. Albero von Puchheim accompanied the duke.
On February 20, 1356, Duke Albrecht II appointed Albero von Puchheim, bailiff in Argau and Thurgau, Ulrich II von Walsee († 1359), captain in Styria , Hermann von Landenberg von Greifensee and Otto von Maissau as his authorized representative for the decisions to be accepted and carried out by King Ludwig in the open issues
With Emperor Karl IV.
A special task resulted from the fact that important in Austria in the secret archive documents two golden bulls of the Holy Roman King in 1358 Frederick II. Of Hohenstaufen had been found, which concerned the Kingdom of Bohemia. The one in which King Friedrich II. Ottokar I Přemysl granted King of Bohemia the ownership of the Flozze estate and accessories, was exhibited in Basel on October 26, 1212. The other - much more important - was exhibited in Melfi in July 1231 and in it Emperor Friedrich II. King Wenceslaus I of Bohemia confirmed the possession of the Kingdom of Bohemia with all the rights and freedoms that King Ottokar I had previously had. Duke Albrecht II therefore decided to forward these two documents to Emperor Charles IV. He appointed the burgrave Burkard von Maidburg and Albero von Puchheim as his special envoy and on April 2, 1358 handed them the documents with the order to bring them to Prague and to hand them over to Emperor Charles IV.
Under Duke Rudolf IV.
Alberos Prince Albrecht II of Habsburg, Duke of Styria (1330-1358), Duke of Carinthia (1335-1358), Lord of Krain and the Austrian Foreland died on July 20, 1358 in Vienna.
. On Duke Albrecht II followed 1358 to 1365 his eldest son Rudolf IV. Called "the founder" (* 1339, † 1365) as Duke of Austria, Carinthia and Styria, who despite his short reign by the (fake) privilege Maius the Acquisition of the county of Tyrol and the Duchy of Carniola , the efforts to establish an independent regional bishopric, the foundation of the University of Vienna, etc., marked the rise of his house and is therefore probably one of the most important Austrian sovereigns of the 14th century. As a close confidante of the Duke, Albero von Puchheim had the privilege of witnessing these developments as a close advisor and occasionally even influencing them. He therefore appears as a witness in numerous documents.
Captain in Styria and Carniola
Duke Rudolf IV appointed Albero von Puchheim captain of the Duchies of Styria and Carniola in 1359 , which means that Albero von Puchheim appears in numerous documents from Duke Rudolf IV.
Albero is mentioned in this function in the document of Duke Rudolf IV. From 1359, in which, after the death of the donor Jan von Dobra, he gave the completed chief hunter's office in Austria under the Enns to Friedrich von Kroisbach (Kreisbach) and gave him that Rappoltenkirchen Castle , called "the Jägerburg", was transferred as an official loan.

In Graz, Albero von Puchheim was, in addition to Gottschalk von Neuberg (Neitperg), also a referee in a dispute between Peter von Eberstorf and the three brothers Friedrich, Ulrich and Otto von Stubenberg over the Stadeck rule and other possessions in Styria, which formerly belonged to Albero von Eberstorf had heard.
After his return from Graz, Albero von Puchheim witnessed the document with which Duke Rudolf IV confirmed the privilege of June 15, 1331 for the Schottenstift in Vienna, which went back to Duke Albrecht II, on July 14, 1360 and took it under his special protection . (Article Puchheim in "Adler" p. 142)
On May 16, 1361, Albero von Puchheim, as captain in Styria and Carniola, testified to the document issued on that day in Vienna by Duke Rudolf IV, with which the latter granted the Klosterneuburg monastery (northeast of Vienna) from the dukes Albrecht and Otto of Austria Confirmed privileges. (Adler p. 142)

Military duties
War against the Patriarch of Aquileia
As a captain in the duchies of Styria and Carniola , Albero von Puchheim was entrusted with military tasks.
In the conflict that existed between Duke Rudolf IV and the Patriarch of Aquileja Ludovico della Torre (1359-1365) due to territorial disputes, war broke out in June 1361, in which Albero von Puchheim earned special merits, as he did not only do Orders from Duke Rudolf had recruited soldiers to fight the Patriarch, but in June 1361 also took part in the fighting with his own troops and contributed significantly to the capture of the city of Aquileia . After they had been conquered, the patriarch was captured, brought to Vienna and held there, from where he could not return until April 1362.

Feud with bohemian neighbors
In 1381 there were border feuds between Bohemian and Austrian lords, whereupon Albero von Puchheim with his sons, Andreas von Liechtenstein and Hans the Streun von Schwarzenau with the Bohemian lords Peter, Ulrich, Johann and Heinrich von Rosenberg and Heinrich III. von Neuhaus († 1398), obtained an armistice and an agreement according to which military actions had to be announced fourteen days before the malfunctions began.
At this time Albero was probably constantly moving in the vicinity of Duke Rudolf IV, as he stated in all letters of freedom and sovereign confirmations that he gave to the monasteries and monasteries of St. Pölten , St. Florian , Lambach , Kremsmünster , Wilhering and Zwettl were issued, appears as a witness, alternating between the "captain in Steyr" and the "supreme truchess in Austria".
In 1363 Albero got into a difficult situation because of an alleged letter that he wrote about Johann Margrave of Moravia from 1349 to 1375 to the Bishop of Olomouc Johann Očko von Wlašim (later Archbishop of Prague and Cardinal) († 1380). It came to a court case in which Albero cleared himself of the allegations with an oath. By means of a letter from the imperial court, given on the Saturday before the resurrection day in 1363, he was therefore declared innocent by the imperial court judge, Burkhard des HRR Burgrave of Magdeburg, Count of Hardegg
On June 24, 1362, Albero was named for the last time as the Styrian governor.
In the last two years of the life of Duke Rudolf IV “the founder”, Albero seems to have been close to the Duke almost all the time, as he was present at almost all of the official government negotiations, except for the signing of the Brno Succession Treaty in 1364 between Emperor Charles IV. And his son-in-law Duke Rudolf IV. On the mutual succession of the two dynasties.
So he will u. a. mentioned in the certificate of Emperor Karl IV. from February 1364, in which the Emperor Duke Rudolf IV. of Austria confirmed the donation of Tyrol by Margaret of Tyrol ( Margarethe Maultasch .)
Albero was with Duke Rudolf IV. In the field camp at Ried im Innkreis and testified to the butcher's regulations for the city of Vienna issued by Duke Rudolf on March 28, 1364. On October 30, 1364, he testified to the approval granted by Duke Rudolf that Eberhard V. von Walsee (* around 1290, † 1371), the captain of Austria over the Enns, would build a new castle on the Klausberg am Pösenbach and after his family " Wallsee Castle " was allowed to name. On March 12, 1365, Albero von Puchheim appeared among the first witnesses to the founding document of the Vienna University by Duke Rudolf IV., Which was also given by his brothers, Albrecht III. and Leopold III., was signed. It is the oldest university in the German-speaking area.
Puchheim was also one of the prominent witnesses in Duke Rudolf's document on April 29, 1356, with which he transferred the castle hat of Spielberg Castle to St. Florian Monastery as a place of refuge in the event of enemy threats against waiver of all claims on the city of Enns .
A little later, Duke Rudolf IV the founder died completely unexpectedly at the age of only 25 on July 27, 1365 in Milan, a heavy loss for Austria and Puchheim.
Under Albrecht III. and Leopold III.
After the death of Duke Rudolf IV, his brothers Albrecht III followed. and Leopold III. together as sovereigns in the Habsburg lands. Initially, Puchheim was not very involved in the business of the new dukes, but often appeared as a witness in private affairs from peers.
On October 28, 1365, Bishop Paul von Freising declared that he would pass the verdict made by Albero von Puchheim and 5 other selected landlords (including Ulrich von Schaunberg, Eberhard von Walsee-Linz, Leutold von Stadeck, Rudolfotto von Liechtenstein and Friedrich von Stubenberg) the demands made on the dukes Albrecht and Leopold by the diocese of Freising because of the damage caused to the monastery by the deceased duke Rudolf IV.
On January 21, 1366, Albero von Puchheim in Vienna witnessed a settlement document between Stefan von Zelking and Cäcilia, his housewife, and Friedrich von Pottendorf, their oath and his wife Dorothea, born von Zelkung on the one hand, and Perthold von Pergau, court judge of Austria and his Muhne Sophie von Pergau on the other hand regarding a debt claim of 1778 pounds, which Stefan and Cäcilia von Zelking had to make to Leutold von Stadeck, Land Marshal in Lower Austria and his cousin Rudolf von Stadeck.
Under the Archbishop of Salzburg
Captain of Salzburg
Immediately afterwards a new perspective arose for Albero, because his brother, Pilgrim II von Puchheim (* around 1330 - † April 5, 1396), who had acquired the Baccalaureate of canon law in Avignon in 1363 , received from the Austrian party in 1365 Cathedral Chapter - against the will of the Dukes of Bavaria - was elected Prince Archbishop of Salzburg and received the regalia on May 8, 1366 in Vienna from Emperor Charles IV . Archbishop Pilgrim appointed his brother Albero, who was experienced in government matters, as governor in the territory of the Prince Archbishopric of Salzburg , an office that Albero held - among other tasks - until 1368.
On October 5, 1366, Albero von Puchheim, as captain of Salzburg and his brother Hans von Puchheim, gave a guarantee for their brother Pilgrim II: von Puchheim, Archbishop of Salzburg, for a monetary debt to the Jew Haeslein.
In the same year, 1366, Albero appeared in two documents from Emperor Emperor Charles IV of Luxembourg , with which the privileges of the Archbishop of Salzburg - his brother Pilgrim von Puchheim - were confirmed.
Under Duke Albrecht III.
Due to the Rudolfinian house rules of 1364, the Habsburg lands were the common property of all brothers. Albrecht III. (1349–1395) therefore ruled together with his brother Duke Leopold III. III. (1351-1386).
Landvogt in the Austrian foothills
On April 29, 1368, Albero von Puchheim appeared for the first time as governor of the two dukes in Swabia and Alsace.
Acquisition of the city of Freiburg for Austria
Albero von Puchheim was then entrusted with the task of dealing with Count Egon III. of Freiburg († 1385) and the city of Freiburg im Breisgau to negotiate with the aim that this city subordinate itself to the authority of the Dukes of Austria, after it was between Count Egino III. and the city in 1366 to bitter acts of war and finally in 1368 to a peace treaty, according to which the city bought itself free for 20,000 marks of silver. It was about handing the city over to a new and reliably protective city lord. Albero dealt with the negotiations with the city to the full satisfaction of his sovereigns by causing the citizens of Freiburg to issue a self-surrender letter and thus submit to the rule of the Austrian dukes. (Lichnowsky IV., Reg. 860) (Adler 144) With this the rule of the Habsburgs in Breisgau was considerably expanded.
In connection with this, Duke Leopold III. Albrecht von Puchheim issued a lapel because of his guarantee for 2000 guilders, for which the city and rule of Freiburg im Breisgau was bought.
In the second half of 1369, Albero accompanied the dukes Albrecht III. and Leopold III. from Austria to Schärding ob der Enns in Austria, where I witnessed the Treaty of Schärding concluded between them and Duke Stephan II of Bavaria on September 29, 1369 . This regulated the important succession in the County of Tyrol, which was between Duke Meinhard Herzog von Oberbayern, who was named Meinhard III by his mother Margarete Maultasch Countess of Görz and Tiol (* 1318, † October 3, 1369 in Vienna) until 1363. also ruled as Count of Tyrol. After his death, however, she appointed his brother-in-law, Duke Rudolf IV of Austria, as heir, which in 1369 led to a long war between Bavaria and Austria, which was ended by this peace, whereby Tyrol finally became part of the Habsburg monarchy . (Adler p. 144)
In the same year Albero received from Puchheim by Duke Albrecht grain and Weinzehent to Oberhollabrunn and was invested with a courtyard, the Jans Turs sold by Raueneck the Alber of Puchheim and the Duke had aufgesandet.
Albero's mission as governor in Swabia and Alsace ended in 1369, whereby the precarious financial situation of the two dukes of Austria is shown in the fact that they did not pay their deserved governor the compensation he was still entitled to for his successful work in cash, but on him on Issued June 24, 1369 a promissory note for 500 guilders.
St. George Knight
According to a surviving list of members from 1369, Messrs. Albero and Johann von Puchheim were members of the St. George's Chapel, also known as Temploier, founded around 1337 by Otto the Merry Duke of Austria to the Augustinians. Knights as they were called in memory of the Knights Templar, which had been repealed a few years earlier. (Fischer, Brevis Notitia Urb. Vindobonae. Suppl. I. S 168 - 171)
Dispute settlement
On St. Agnes Day in 1371, Albero von Puchheim, the chief trustee and Hartneid von Losenstein brokered the dispute between their uncles, the brothers Heinrich and Gundacker von Dachsberg, with Peter, pastor of Waidhofen an der Thaya and clerk of Mr. Heidenreich von Maissau, land marshal in Austria, because of the church in Waidhofen, which was entrusted to the deceased Eberhard von Dachsberg for the care and, after his death, to the aforementioned Brothers von Dachsberg. They decided that the pastor should give the Dachsbergers 10 pounds of Viennese pfennigs from the proceeds, but that the rest should belong to the pastor and the church. Also, the Dachsbergers should no longer harass the pastor, but rather be gracious masters and protectors of the church and its goods.
Military service
In the frequent feuds in which the brothers Duke Albrecht and especially Duke Leopold were constantly involved because of his inclination to war, Albero stood by them as a loyal fief and ally with good and blood, which was confirmed by the letters of indemnity issued by the dukes. In 1372, the dukes Albrecht and Leopold of Austria confirmed that they owed Albero von Puchheim 3800 guilders for his military services and prescribed him their dwelling (castle) Raabs, the market and the court there, as well as Selva and the Urbar in the Ennstal
Negotiations with Hungary
On October 22, 1372 in Wiener Neustadt, Stefan III. von Kanizsay, Bishop of Agram (today: Zagreb), the Palatine of Hungary, Emerich Eschlinionus (Oscil), the supreme Schenk and Land Marshal in Austria, Heidenreich von Maissau, the Oberst-Truchsess, Albero von Puchheim and Kadolt von Eckartsau as arbitrators the chairmanship of Hermann I. Graf von Cilli the border disputes between Hungary and Austria
Division of the Austrian countries
In the politically significant agreement on the division of the Austrian lands between Duke Albrecht III. And Leopold III. of Austria of July 23, 1373; at the Duke Albert III. Lower Austria, his brother Duke Leopold received the remaining states - which represents a preliminary stage to the Treaty of Neuberg (1379) - Albero appears as the chief chief executive among the first witnesses.
Ownership dispute over Illmau Castle
At the same time, Albero von Puchheim was involved in a dispute with Niclas the Pillung of St. Gilgenberg over a quarter of Illmau Castle, to which Duke Albrecht appointed Land Marshal Heidenreich von Maissau and Chadolt von Eckartsau as spokesmen, which on November 14, 1373 decided in favor of Puchheim. Duke Albrecht decided, whereupon Niklas der Pillung sold his share in Illmau Castle to Albero von Puchheim
Captain in Salzburg
On September 8, 1374, Albero von Puchheim, chief trustee and captain in Salzburg, and his son, Pilgrim von Puchheim, captain vo Friesach , vowed to be ready to see Duke Leopold and the Seldenhofen fortress whenever his son, Pilgrim von Puchheim Elisabeth, widow Cholos von Seldenhofen married

On January 9, 1376, Albero von Puchheim appeared as a court assessor at the Hofschranne in Vienna and took the lead in the dispute between the provost of Klosterneuburg , Koloman von Neuhaus; and Niklas the Idungspeuger , who had beaten the provost's court messenger , together with Heidenreich von Maissau, the Count of Pernstein, Kadolt von Eckartsau and other gentlemen, the realization that he had given the duke 50 gold marks and the court judge Marchart von Tiernstein 20 marks Silver should have expired.
Credit to Duke Albrecht III.
In 1382 he lent his sovereign, Duke Albrecht III. from Austria, 3400 lb for the war against Bavaria and the Counts of Schaunberg and received the town of Laa an der Thaya with the town tax, the town and regional court and the market Höbersdorf (in the judicial district Stockerau ) as a pledge
death
Albero last appeared in a document on September 24, 1383, so he should have died soon afterwards.
possession
Albero von Puchheim was constantly striving to expand his extensive property, as can be seen from numerous documents
Inheritance from his father
After the death of his father Pilgrim IV. Von Puchheim in 1343, Albero, as senior of the house, took over a large part of the family property and thus the ancestral castle of Schloss Puchheim, which had been in family ownership since 1130, on the left bank of the Ager in today's Upper Austria with the church fief, as well as the castle and the village of Reitzenschlag (in the municipality of Litschau ), the sentence of the regional court in the Danube valley and the villages of Ober- and Untermallebarn (today cadastral municipalities of the market town of Sierndorf, Korneuburg district in Lower Austria's Weinviertel region ).
At the same time he took over the office of Supreme Truchess in the Duchy of Austria with the associated lordships of Feldsberg (today in South Moravia ) in Okres Břeclav (Lundenburg district) not far from the border with Lower Austria and Orth Castle on the Danube.
Relocation of the property to Lower Austria
Subsequently, under Albero there was a systematic relocation of property by exchanging or selling dominions and goods in Austria, whether the Enns or Styria, in order to acquire numerous larger and smaller dominions and possessions in Austria under the Enns .
Albero acquired the villages of Göpfritzschlag (in the municipality of Karlstein an der Thaya ) and Weißenbach as early as 1344, as well as several other fiefs in the area of the former county of Raabs in the Lower Austrian Waldviertel and sold extensive goods together with his first wife and brother Hans that same year on May 13th Goods in the valley of the Enns and in the valley of the Liesingtal in Upper Styria to the abbot Ulrich of the Benedictine abbey St. Blasius zu Admont
_-_Burg_(1).JPG)
Around 1347 Albero had the prince's castle Falkenstein as a pledge, which, however, was given by Duke Albrecht III. on June 5, 1353 was triggered and otherwise pledged by him.
Swap Puchheim for Litschau and Heidenreichstein
In 1348 Albero decided to take a decisive step, namely to relocate his main focus of ownership from Austria above the Enns (Upper Austria) to Austria under the Enns (Lower Austria)
He did this by taking over the free family castle and rule of Puchheim Castle in Upper Austria on October 15, 1348 , which had lost its function as the headquarters of the family for some time, including the associated jurisdiction, the lent goods, all nobles, the two church loans to Vöcklabruck and the church in Puchenau with Duke Albrecht II of Austria for the castles and lordships of Litschau and Heidenreichstein including the associated courts, the lent goods and the church loan at Litschau, but without the nobles and the church loans at Raabs an der Thaya and Heidenreichstein after he had previously owned these goods as pledge. However, he did not receive these lords as a free property, but as a sovereign fiefdom. They were therefore legally of inferior quality, but considerably larger in scope than the free family estate Puchheim.
Illmau Castle
In 1351 he was enfeoffed by Duke Albrecht II of Austria with the princely fortress and rule Illmau , but left it to the von Hauser family as a knightly fiefdom. In the same year he appeared as a feudal lord of the Zehenthof in Thaya , which at that time belonged to the historical county of Litschau.

On April 3, 1356 Albero sold to Konrad the Kuchler the valley in the "Grosse Selich" (Sölktal) and the Selchensteinn fortress (Schloss Großsölk ) located there in the ( judicial district of Schladming ) in Styria, which was a fiefdom of Duke Albrecht of Austria . The last possession of the Puchheimers in Upper Styria is likely to have been sold
Lichtenwerd
In 1357 Albero bought half of Lichtenwörth Castle (in the Wiener Neustadt-Land district ) for 1000 pounds pfennigs from his nephew Hans von Puchheim, the son of his deceased brother Hans
Raabs and Dobersberg
Albero von Puchheim made important acquisitions in 1358, as Duke Albrecht II certified on March 3, 1358 that Albert von Puchheim von Wernhart von Maissau had the important Raabs an der Thaya castle , seat of the former Raabs county, the associated Raabs market and castle and Herrschaft Dobersberg including accessories for 300 marks silver and 1000 marks silver Viennese weight, then 150 and 460 pounds Viennese pfennigs. Albero von Puchheim thus controlled a large part of the former county of Raabs in the north-west of Lower Austria.
Goellersdorf
In the same year 1358 there was a dispute between Albero von Puchheim, Reinprecht I. Lords von Walsee and Heidenreich von Maissau over shares and rights in the castle-counts-Nuremberg fief of Göllersdorf . This was decided in the presence of Albrecht Burgrave of Nuremberg on behalf of the feudal lord, Burgrave Friedrich V of Nuremberg, (1333-1398) in favor of Albero, who was awarded sole ownership.
Mallebarn
In 1359 Albero von Puchheim received a fiefdom to Mallebarn (now part of the market town of Sierndorf ) for himself and his heirs from Kadolt the Elder and Kadold the Younger von Eckartsau

In the same year he bequeathed his second wife Scholastika von Starhemberg , († 1385) as a morning gift 600 shock Prague pfennigs and Eberhard von Idungspeugen gave 100 pounds Viennese pfennigs.
Grace Village
In 1365 Albero owned the fortress Gnadendorf (in the Mistelbach district in Lower Austria ) including the team as a princely fief.
On January 15, 1366, Albero von Puchheim, with the approval of his feudal lord, Duke Albrecht of Austria, bought from Heinrich von Winkel 2½ pounds of Viennese pfennigs and 2 denarius Gülten zu Lindach on an estate donated by Holden, where Heinrich the Mayer was bailiff.
On June 24, 1366 he bought half a farm on the mountain of Raabs above the market, called the "Zenleinshof", and the other half of this farm from Topich von Weynar, his brothers and his mother, from Weikhard the contraband and Margarete, his wife In the same year he acquired a share of the vineyard near Nussdorf from Katharina, the widow of Heinrich von Schwandeck.
Repurchase of fiefdoms
Albero also endeavored to buy back property given to knightly feudal people.
Albero u. a. 1378 a quarter of the Illmau fortress with all its accessories, as it used to be a fiefdom of the Puchheimers from Jobst Zluch v. Sötlitz and 1380 von Greiff von Weynarn goods that were fiefdoms of the Puchheimer "and that is left of the Grafschaft zu Rabs as the same Grafschaft is right and custom"

Weissenbach
1380 he acquired from the Hertel Weissenbeck (Weissenbach), the last of his tribe, the fortress Weissenbach near Castle Illmau in District Waidhofen an der Thaya , after he had already in 1344 acquired the village of the same name. The castles in Peigarten (in the municipality of Thaya) and Reingers (in the district of Gmünd ) are likely to have belonged to his fiefdom.
Vogt von Stift Eisgarn
After the death of Heinrich, the last lord of Klingenberg zu Litschau, who died on August 26, 1346 with King John of Bohemia (from the House of Luxembourg ) in the Battle of Crécy , the “noble Mr. Albero von Puchheim became the supreme truchess in Austria “, Elected by Provost Konrad and the convent as bailiff of the Eisgarn collegiate monastery and confirmed on July 12, 1357 by his successor, provost Stephan, and by the convent as bailiff and second founder. At the same time, he was also given the right to present the provost and new canons to be appointed.
On June 3, 1380, the provost of the Eisgarn Collegiate Church confirmed that Albero von Puchheim, Supreme Truchsess in Austria, as the owner of the County of Litschau, was the right bailiff over the Propstei Eisgarn (founded in 1330 by Johann von Klingenberg as a canon monastery) (in the Gmünd district in the north Waldviertel) was. .

Two years later, Albero von Puchheim received a confirmation from the judge Ulrich in Vienna in 1364 about the basic right of his house on the Hochstrasse in Vienna
Loans to the sovereign
His excellent financial situation is shown by the fact that he was able to grant his sovereign, Duke Albrecht II of Austria, substantial loans. For example, on June 7, 1356, for borrowed 4,500 pounds, Albero received from Duke Albrecht II the sentence at the fortress Hainburg on the Danube with court toll and 50 pounds from the local citizen tax for two years in addition to the entitlement to the fortress Raabs an der Thaya , which at that time was still pledged to the Lords of Maissau .
