history

In 1419, a Fritzen Wäcken Hutell was named for the first time as the Pleystein castle guard, to whom Count Palatine Johann exposed four Rhenish guilders and six eighths of grain for life because of his services . 1443 appointed Christoph III. , in addition to his dignity as Count Palatine, he was also King of Denmark, Sweden and Norway, the knight Erhard vom Rornstat for ten years as the caretaker of the castle, town and rule of Pleystein. Rornstat was an ennobled mayor of Pleystein. He built the first castle hat "under the castle" under the castle. His descendant Jorg von Rornstat, keeper of Bruck in the Upper Palatinate, sold the so-called "Rornstater House" in 1519 to the Count Palatine Ludwig and Friedrich . The latter lent the castle property to the Weiherknecht Wolf Tapermeier; so the estate lost its freedom of the people of the country .

1449 is the first time the still existing castle estate called when Duke Otto , Vizedom of King Christopher III, the Jorg KuchenMeister the house and the paddock "nuwenstat in the Pliestein" gives. he had to give the keeper at the castle half a pound of “Helbling” (half of a silver penny ) every year . The chefs are the gentlemen from Nordenberg , who came to Pleystein in the wake of the Landgraves from Leuchtenberg ; Konrad the cake master was a judge in Pleystein as early as 1396. After the cake master, a Wilhelm von Windisch is the owner, followed in 1518 by Erhard von Reitzenstein , also the builder of the briefly existing iron hammer under the Bartlmühle . The next owner is Mathes von Stein zum Rackenstein . He sold the castle hat to his foster son Mathes von Lichteneck on January 3, 1538 . In 1540 the castle hat is in the hands of the Pleystein keeper Wolf von Wemding. In 1541, Balthasar Thürigl von Figlstein received the fiefdom letter for the castle hat, from 1534 to 1537 he was also the keeper of the Pleystein estate.

The property then passed into the hands of the von Brand family . Wolf von Brand († 1568) was Pleystein's caretaker until 1560, he was married to Cathrina von Truppach († 1573); their alliance coat of arms is in the parish church of Pleystein. Their sons Sebastian and Leonhard inherit the castle hat from their father, the letter of fief is issued on March 14, 1577. Sebastian Brand († 1600) became Pleystein's carer from 1574; he was married to Elisabeth Kratzen von Scharfenstein , her epitaph is also in the parish church of Pleystein. From 1592 the castle property became the official residence of the caretaker, as the castle had become dilapidated. Of the four sons, the first two, Friedrich and Wolfgang, inherited the castle hat; They receive the feudal letter on March 21st, 1601. Johann Christoph Brand von Pleystein zum Leuzenhof becomes the caretaker in Pleystein in 1605, the castle hat is given to him on May 13th, 1609 and was bought by him on May 28th, 1610 from Sebastian's sons. In 1611 the castle property accommodates Bastian von Pregler zu Burschau, who fled from Bohemia, and his wife, a sister of Johann Christoph Brand. After the death of her husband († 1614), Sybille von Brandt sells the castle property on November 11, 1614 to her godfather Tobias Schubhardt, Electoral Palatinate judge of the offices of Zeitldorn and Sallern , and his wife Anna Maria, née. Castner from Unterschnaittenbach . Tobias Schubhardt receives the fiefdom letter on February 8, 1615; he is also the builder of the Trutzhof . Hans David Castner was already registered on the castle property in 1614, which was probably a pledge. In 1626 the widow and heirs sell the estate to Hans Haubner von der Altenstadt . According to the nurse Georg Dietrich, he was considered a “quarrelsome guest” and a “stubborn Kozer” (meaning heretic), while the nurse de Marsin said of him, “he is stubborn and with good will he pays no taxes”. In Altenstadt he also had a quarrel with everyone and in 1625 shot the woodcutter Simon Schößl there because of border disputes. Thereupon he had to sell his country estate on the orders of the elector and pay a fine. Because of his disputes, which were also carried out at Pleystein, he was repeatedly refused to lend the castle property; only after a reconciliation was he enfeoffed on May 16, 1630 with the castle property. The castle was spared during the Croatian invasion in 1634, but in autumn the plague broke out in Pleystein , starting from the castle. A plague hospital was then set up there, and all the people housed there died, including Hans Haubner. His son Martin Haubner survived, who moved to the Tirschenreuth area and lived there in poor conditions.

Because of the sale of the castle property, Hans von Edlburg negotiated in 1638 with the guardians of the posthumous children of Hans Haubner, Martin and Christoph. They agreed on a purchase price of 300 florins , whereby the landscape chancellor von Silbermann said that the elector Wolfgang Wilhelm should purchase the castle property himself in order to then give it away for a higher "fiefdom" (thought of a Pürschrohr or a cuirass ) . Hans von Edlburg could not ignore this request of his sovereign and sold it to the sovereign at the purchase price in the same year. On March 8, 1642, Martin Haubner, the son of the previous owner, reports that he is complaining about the misery he has got into and asks for the means to learn a trade. He was granted this on April 4, 1643. His brother Christoph Haubner, reformed cavalryman and citizen of Weiden in the Upper Palatinate , also makes financial claims because of the property, but this is rejected because of the debts from his father's time paid by the nursing office.

In the meantime, the castle property was given to Gerhard Spannerbock as compensation for his outstanding Rittmeister salary of 1500 fl. He had become the keeper of Pleystein and on August 28, 1639 he was awarded the castle property. After his death on May 16, 1647, his widow stayed on the castle estate, but in 1659 sold it to her son-in-law Wilhelm Damourmeister for 1000 florins. This decrease in value can be explained by the desertification of the Trutzhof . Wilhelm Damourmeister entered the Dutch military service in 1664, his son of the same name became “Lakay bei Fürstl. Your Highness, Young Prince ”. He does not return from the Anglo-Dutch War . On October 22nd, 1673, the widow Anna Dorothea Damourmeister was asked to give up the compulsory Landsassenpflicht and to have the underage son patronize, her mother, Helene Spannerbock, had been in poor administration over the castle property for 13 years. Since Anna Dorothea Damourmeister wanted to get married again, on February 24, 1674 she called for the castle property to be demolished and married Paul Philipp Merz von der Vilß, judge of Vohenstrauss. After several conflicts within the family, Peter Jakob Strickmüller got the castle property in 1691, the young Wilhelm Damourmeister went under the soldiers and became "Quardi Soldat" in Ingolstadt. On August 4, 1695, Strickmüller sells the estate for 2250 fl and 50 fl on loan to Maria Anna Saxenhöferin (von Satzenhofen ). Already on November 19, 1698, the castle property passed to Johann Jakob Tuchner von Schoberau and on January 10, 1714 to Franz Lorenz von Dupsky. He built a brewery in the castle estate in 1718. After the death of Franz Lorenz († 1751) and as a result of the Austrian War of Succession , the rule of Pleystein and the castle property passed to Count Wilhelm von Sinzendorf , while the widow Maria Sophia Eva von Dupsky, née. von Ottengrün, complaint, she also complains about the bad treatment by the servants. After her death († 1752), Count Wilhelm von Sinzendorf viewed the castle property as a fief that had become apert and had it administered by the Pleysteiner Nursing Office.

The castle property is subsequently used as the residence of the electoral court clerks. On February 15, 1786, Christoph Joseph Rheinfeld, court clerk at Pleystein, complained about the dilapidated shed in the castle estate. His successor, Johann Joseph Jouvin, also reports on the dilapidated condition of the castle property. A fire on August 19, 1793 and a lightning strike on September 20, 1794 further ruin the castle property. The repairs are only carried out when the castle property has passed into civil hands from the electoral administration; in the process it has lost its sovereign freedom. Even after the town fire of 1848, the castle property was rebuilt, but smaller than before. The following are named as owners: ex-prelate Magnus Singer (1800, later at Treswitz Castle ), Franziska Fitzthum (1829), Barbara Kreuzer (1844), Lehner family (1845), Karl family (1921), Johann Lang (1924), Watzka (1929) ), Bräundl (1939), Stadt Pleystein (1939), family Mühlhofer and family Stahl (1943).
