history

In the second half of the 12th century, the Bamberg ministerials of the Bruckers sat on the castle estate as castle keepers . Since the existence of the market in Bruck (April 25, 1343), the function of the castle property was to protect and defend the market. Reymar the Younger von Schwarzenburg and his sister Agnes gave the dukes of Upper Bavaria market and castle estate Bruck as a fiefdom , d. that is, they placed themselves under their protection. Probably shortly after his enfeoffment on June 19, 1269 with the bailiwick over the Nittenau area by the Bamberg Bishop Berthold , Duke Ludwig II gave the castle property to the Schwarzenburgs as a fief. After the death of Reimar von Schwarzenburg, his sister and brother-in-law Ulrich von Satzenhofen inherited the market and castle property and sold both on June 19, 1345 to the Count Palatine Ruprecht the Elder and Ruprecht the Younger .

The Dürner family is documented as the next owner of the castle estate at the beginning of the 16th century. In 1518 Hans Dürner is the owner of the castle property. He sold it in 1527 to Hans Mangst zu Kulz and Weislitz . Was succeeded by his son, Hans Wolf Mangst ruling over its guardians in the 1584 Landsassenmatrikel appears. The guardians (Johann Weyer, Hans Georg Knott, Hans Thomas Präckendorf) sell the castle property to Georg Gierl, a citizen of Nittenau, on December 20, 1591. He sold the castle property on March 15, 1597 to Peter von Görnitz and his housewife Anna Magdalena, née Ostermüncher. He received the freedom of the landed people only after he had contractually assured the sovereign that he would be worthy of a brush horse . His widow married Christoph Balthasar von Weseneck. After her death, the castle property came to her daughter, who married Wolf Eitel Pelkofer in 1615. From this it was acquired in 1617 by Hans Nordek, who applied for the estate of the landlord removal; In the same year it says of the castle property: it has not been inhabited for a number of years, nor has it been tilled, also in the fields and not otherwise cultivated ... because otherwise such property does not have a penny income, neither according to validity, nor interest, nor subjects has . After Nordek's death († 1625), his heirs sold the castle property in 1628 to Hans Sigmund von Leonprechting, caretaker and forester at Bruck. In 1650 Hans Prantner, clerk at Bruck, bought the castle property from Leonprechtinger and paid homage in 1652. He was followed by his son Martin Prantner, who on May 31, 1677 resigned from the compulsory Landsassen. In 1729 Johan Emeram von Schott was certified as castle keeper, in 1732 his widow Eva Barbara. This sold the castle property to the Walderbach monastery . As the monastery was heavily in debt, the Bruck castle was sold to Johann Stephan May (e) r from Donauwörth on June 30, 1747 . On November 30, 1755, the castle property went to Johann Andre Unger, caretaker and forester at Bruck.

After his death († 1756), his heirs are registered in the land register. From these, on March 17, 1768, Karl Graf von Thürheim von Stockenfels and Fischbach , chief forest master and treasurer of Bruck, bought the castle property. On September 30, 1768, the castle property was transferred to the Rentkammerrat Wenzel Arnold on Kaufweg. On June 9, 1770 he gave it to Cornelius Wichart, administrator of the Hofmark Schönsee and von Winklarn . This was followed by Maria Baroness von Jett, née Freiin von Sternbach. Since there was no income to be gained from the castle estate, she exchanged it on December 10, 1782 for the Großetzenberg estate of Maximilian Joseph von Silbermann. In 1789 Maria Theresia Baroness von Gleißenthal zu Regenpeilstein resided here, who passed the property on to her cousin Maria Theresia von Klingensberg. This sold the castle property on September 20, 1794 to Peter Freiherr von Vieregg, chief forest master of Bruck. On September 30, 1807, the Landsassenfreit of the castle property was withdrawn and jurisdiction was transferred to the Wetterfeld Regional Court. Baron von Vieregg was allowed to "smash" the possessions of the castle estate, d. H. to sell in individual parts. A reference to the later leather factory is attached to the Burggutschlösschen.
