Ascheberg is the name of a Westphalian nobility family who belonged to the vassals of the bishops of Osnabrück . The eponymous headquarters is in the Coesfeld district .

history

In 1164, Ascheberg Castle was completely destroyed by the Steinfurters . Ascheberg Castle was located near Steinfurt Castle in Burgsteinfurt. In 1206, the last remaining family member of the von Ascheberg family donated their entire inherited property to the St. Aegidii monastery in Münster, when Ascheberg Castle was no longer in the land register.

The Ascheberg family near Lüdinghausen first appears in a document in 1243 with the knight Godefridus de Asscheberghe . The tribe series does not begin until 1317 with Ludgerus de Ascheberg .

It is assumed that there is a connection with the noble free men of the same name who first appeared in a document in 1168 with a Burkhardus de Asscheberghe, nobilis and who last appeared in a document in 1206 with Odelhildis matrona nobilis de Ascenberghe .
