Habermannsburg
The so-called Habermannsburg (also: Burgmannenhaus of the von Habern family , Städtel 26) in Erbach in the Odenwald is a medieval Burgmannenhaus . It was created as part of the settlement of Burgmannen in front of the Erbacher Schloss as the core of the medieval city, surrounded by the arms of the Mümling in the area of today's Straße Im Städtel . With the so-called Templerhaus and the Burgmannenhaus Pavey there are other buildings of this type.
history
The building is documented for the first time in 1414. Hans von Habern acquires huss and hoffereyde in the town of Erpach , which Kuntz von Brensbach, who died childless, had previously owned.
architecture
The Habermannsburg is a late Gothic building on a trapezoidal floor plan with humpback blocks at the corners. The building adjoins the back wall of an outbuilding of the Erbach Castle. On the central risalit is the coat of arms of the von Habern family with two axes and the year 1515. The risalit itself was possibly originally a round stair tower until it was rebuilt, but it cannot be said when this took place, as there were hardly any records about the building before 1883 exist. The Burgmannensitz probably also had ancillary buildings, about which nothing is known.
