Cent Michelrieth

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cent Michelrieth was a cent of the Hochstift Würzburg and the Counts of Wertheim .

history

The Cent Michelrieth was originally a debtor, but the debtor's rights were lost. In 1317 the Cent is mentioned as the Würzburg fiefdom owned by the Counts of Rieneck, but in the 14th century Würzburg gave the fiefdom to the Counts of Wertheim , who also held most of the bailiwick rights in this area. In 1409 the first loan from Wertheim was documented. With the contract from 1505, the relationship between Würzburg and Wertheim was regulated in Cent Michelrieth. Then Wertheim asked the questioning centgrave and Würzburg a silent one. After Wertheim's extinction in 1556, Ludwig von Stolberg enfeoffed Würzburg with the Cent Michelrieth. In 1576 Ludwig von Stolberg died without male descendants and Würzburg took in the Cent Michelrieth as a settled fiefdom. The following inheritance disputes led to the Würzburg feud, which ended with the death of the last heir, Ludwig von Stolberg, in 1612. As a result, the Cent Michelrieth was shared between Löwenstein-Wertheim and Würzburg.
