history

Hoheneck Castle was first mentioned in 1132 in the founding document of Heilsbronn Monastery .

In 1381 Arnold von Seckendorff sold Hoheneck with the property and forest to the Nuremberg burgrave Friedrich V. A few years later he set up the Hoheneck Office . In 1462 the castle was burned down during the war between Margrave Albrecht zu Brandenburg and the Bishopric of Würzburg .

The Oberamt Hoheneck comprised the Vogtamt Lenkersheim , the Kastenamt Ipsheim , the Schultheißenamt Markt Bergel and the Schultheißenamt Burgbernheim . Towards the end of the 18th century there was a property in Hoheneck. The high court exercised the Brandenburg-Bayreuth Vogtamt Lenkersheim . The castle was owned by the Ipsheim caste office as landlord . The Oberamt Hoheneck was merged with the Chamber Office Ipsheim during the Prussian administration .

As part of the community edict, Hoheneck was assigned to the Ipsheim tax district formed in 1811 . It also belonged to the Ipsheim rural community formed in 1817 . With the second municipal edict (1818) it was re- municipalityed to Eichelberg .

At the beginning of the 1920s, the Munich publisher Julius Friedrich Lehmann bought the castle. The castle was used by the Wehrverband Bund Oberland as a venue, for example for the leaders' conferences held in 1924 and 1927. Federal leaders Friedrich Weber , Gustav Sondermann , Josef Römer and August Winnig took part in the Führer Conference in April 1924 . From June 4 to 6, 1927 , the Bundestag conference of the Old Reich flag , chaired by Willy Liebel , who later became the city councilor and Lord Mayor of Nuremberg, took place there, with General Erich Ludendorff and his wife Mathilde Ludendorff also giving speeches on folk topics, on November 18 the funeral of the Munich Police President Ernst Pöhner in the “Heldenhain”, attended by Adolf Hitler and Joseph Goebbels , among others . From 1928 the castle was the training center of the Sturmabteilung (SA) for southern Germany and several times the location of major NSDAP events such as the Whitsun Gau meeting held in June 1930 (with the participation of Streicher, Hitler and General von Epp) or the first Middle Franconian SA leaders' pre -school on January 18, 1932 with the participation of Julius Streicher, Wilhelm Stegmann and Willy Liebel, among others . The historian Manfred Kittel sees the " völkisch charisma" emanating from the castle as one of the reasons for West Central Franconia's development into a National Socialist stronghold.

The castle has belonged to the city of Nuremberg since 1953 and is therefore the only castle owned by the city, as the Nuremberg castle is owned by the Bavarian Palace and Lake Administration .

On July 1, 1972, Hoheneck was incorporated into the Ipsheim market as part of the regional reform .

Since April 1984 Hoheneck Castle has been used as a youth education center for the Nürnberg-Stadt district youth association, which is also its sponsor.
