Office Neubrunn

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The office of Neubrunn was an office of the Teutonic Order and later of the Hochstift Würzburg .

Office of the Teutonic Order

The rule Prozelten was owned by the Klingenberg and Prozelten taverns. After their extinction, the property fell to the Counts of Wertheim . When the county was divided in 1281, the Prozelten rule also became a condominium between Eberstein , Hohenlohe , Schlüsselberg and Vaihingen . Countess Elisabeth von Hohenlohe acquired Popo von Eberstein's share in 1317 and transferred this and her own property to the Teutonic Order. In 1319, Count Konrad von Vaihingen also donated his share to the Teutonic Order. By later purchasing goods and rights, the Teutonic Order rounded off its possessions.

Countess Elisabeth von Hohenlohe's donations also included her property in Neubrunn, which came into the possession of the order around 1300. She had a hospital built there, which was moved to Prozelten in 1319. The donation in Neubrunn was called Kommende Neubrunn , but this Kommende was canceled in 1336 and given to the Kommende Prozelten .

The property of the Kommende Prozelten was divided into the four offices of Prozelten , Neubrunn, Sachsenhausen and Röllbach . According to the land register of 1379, the Kommende had rulership and bailiwick in the following places in the Neubrunn office: Dietenhan (jointly with the Charterhouse Grünau ), Helzenberg (desert), Lindelbach , Neubrunn and Urphar . There were also subjects of the Teutonic Order in Böttigheim .

In 1397 the German Order received permission from King Wenzel to fortify Neubrunn. The Teutonic Order took this as an opportunity to set up its own central court in Neubrunn. The cent rights, however, were with Wertheim. In 1429 a lawsuit at the royal district court in Nuremberg confirmed Wertheim's claims. Cent and escort therefore stayed with Wertheim. In 1456, Wertheim also claimed the bailiwick of Urphar, Lindelbach, Dietenhan, Sachsenhausen and Nassig . In 1466 there were open disputes on this issue and a complaint from the Teutonic Order to the Pope . In 1469 the Pope instructed the Archbishop of Mainz and the Bishops of Worms and Speyer to call on the Count of Wertheim to return the parishes when threatened with church punishment. After this remained unsuccessful, the Teutonic Order filed a complaint with the imperial court in 1472. In 1438 the Kommende Prozelten passed to Kurmainz . At this point, the lawsuit was pending. The places were permanently lost.

With the transition to Kurmainz, the Kommende Prozelten became the Kurmainzian office of Prozelten .

Würzburg Office

In 1655 Kurmainz sold Neubrunn and Böttigheim to the Würzburg monastery. Würzburg managed this acquisition as the Neubrunn office and subordinated it to the chamber interest office. In 1686/87, as part of an administrative simplification, the administration of the Neubrunn office was transferred to the official of the Homburg am Main office . As a separate office, it went under over time.

The statistics of the Hochstift Würzburg from 1699 name two villages. As annual revenues of the high pin out of office were taken away: estimate : 37 Reichstaler, nine lumps and smoke pounds 205 pounds.
