Office Cobern
The Amt Kobern (also Amt Cobern , Herrschaft Kobern , Court Kobern ) was an administrative and judicial district in the Electorate of Trier with its seat in Kobern, which existed from the 14th to the 15th century .
The Oberburg Kobern was first mentioned in 1195, when the then lord of the castle gave it to the Archbishop of Trier as a fief. Castle and rule Kobern fell to the House of Isenburg , where the Isenburg-Cobern line was formed. Robin von Isenburg-Cobern, the male branch of this line, went out in 1301. As a result, Kobern came to Kurtrier.
Elector Baldwin of Luxembourg formed an administrative office based on the French model. At the head of the offices there was now a bailiff . The Kobern office was one of the 30 offices mentioned in documents during Baldwin's term of office. In a list commissioned by Elector Johann II of Baden in 1498, 59 offices, including the office of Kobern, are mentioned. The Trier fire book of 1563 no longer mentions Kobern. The office must therefore have been dissolved in the meantime. The official locations Kobern, Wolken , Polch , Kaan and Ruitsch were now named as part of the Münstermaifeld office .
