Blumenegg

The Blumenegg landscape is located in the Walgau in Vorarlberg in Austria .

It includes the communities of Thuringia , Bludesch , Ludesch and Thüringerberg . It should not be confused with Blumegg and Blumegg Castle near Stühlingen. However, there is a relationship with the Blumegger noble family due to the apparently identical coat of arms .

As the rule of Blumenegg , with the residence of Burg Blumenegg , a territory of the Counts of Werdenberg , from 1391 under the Barons of Brandis , from 1510 under the Counts of Sulz , and from 1613 in the possession of the Upper Swabian Weingarten Abbey (the castle fell into disrepair from 1774) . In 1802/03, in the course of the secularization of the monastery, it came to Nassau-Orange and in 1804 to Habsburg .

It belonged to the area of the County of Sonnenberg , later it was a regional court of the Bregenz District Office .

Around 1783, the rulership included Ludesch and the southern half of the Großwalsertal with Raggal and Sonntag , and the Thuringian mountain - not yet a municipality at the time - also partly belonged to the Sankt Gerold ( St. Gerold , Blons ) rulership , which belonged to the Einsiedeln monastery .
