Burgstall Perkheim

The Burgstall Perkheim (also called Hausberglage Perkheim ) is an abandoned castle in the municipality of Timelkam in the Vöcklabruck district of Upper Austria (the Burgstall is located near the abandoned Urzenbauer property ).

history

The lords of Perkheim originally lived in the bishopric of Salzburg in what is now Bergheim . They held high offices there until they repeatedly fell out with the archbishops in the 13th century. As a result, the Archbishop of Salzburg , Konrad IV. Bought Heinrich von Perkheim's seat and court in Perkheim in 1295. In 1336 Archbishop Friedrich III. then also acquire the dish Anthering from the Perkheimers. The Perkheimers then turned to the country above the Enns and owned Oberbergham near Gaspoltshofen , Bergham Castle near Linz, Bergheim Castle near Geboltskirchen or Bergheim Castle near Feldkirchen on the Danube, and over time many other rulers.

Another seat of the Perkheimer was near Timelkam. This is already mentioned in 1188/89 as predium, quod situm es Percheim . In 1452 it is also documented that Jörg Perkchaimer and his siblings had the sicz and the court of Perkhaim in Schöndorffer pharr . Kaspar von Perkheim was King I. Maximilian 1499 first Vizedom in federal province. As early as 1460, however, he had relocated his headquarters to Würting Castle near Offenhausen . In 1544 Jorig Kriechpamb (Kriechbaum) leased a garden to Christoff Weyss in Perkhaim. After that, the Perkheim residence near Timelkam does not seem to have been used any more.

In the pilgrimage church of Maria Schöndorf von Vöcklabruck there was also a tower dedicated to St. Chapel dedicated to Christophorus housed; instead of this, knight Jörg der Perkhaimer († 1468), carer of Wolfsegg , built the so-called “Perkheimer Chapel” in 1450 , which also houses his tombstone. The tombstone of Kaspar von Perkheim, who died in 1520 (made by the Passau stonemason Jörg Gartner ) is also in the northern tower chapel of Schöndorf.

Perkheim in the Franziszeischen Cadastre

Burgstall Perkheim today

The well recognizable, Hausberg-like facility was placed under monument protection. The conspicuous area marked in the Franziszeische Cadastre is not the local mountain (as is sometimes assumed), but an older material pit. The castle's Meierhof , the Urzenbauer, has completely disappeared.
