Coming of the Bollei Bolzano (1788)

The Deutschordensballei An der Etsch und im Gebirge was the regional organization of the Teutonic Order in the area of ​​the medieval county of Tyrol .

structure

The Ballei was originally under the German master . Shortly before 1300 she was subordinated to the Grand Master . In this way the ballroom became a chamber ballot , in which the grand master was entitled to appoint the land commander . The Commander-in-Chief of Bozen has also been the Commander-in-Chief since 1269. In 1520 the chamber ball was pledged to the Deutschmeister and not redeemed. Due to this unclear allocation, the Ballei was able to maintain a certain independence.

The Landkomtur der Ballei had been a member of the Tyrolean state since 1534 due to its territorial possessions and was represented in the Tyrolean state parliament on the second (= spiritual) bench. The purchase and sale of goods and the occupation of parishes was reserved for the land commander alone. The Ballei was economically weak and played a role in the 13th and 14th centuries when it provided accommodation for religious knights en route to Italy and the Holy Land. With the loss of Acre , the importance of the Ballei continued to decline.

The seat of the land commander was Bolzano .

history

The nucleus of the Ballei was a donation from the Bozen couple Gerold and Mechthild from the year 1202, which led to the establishment of a hospital and a church (John the Baptist) on the Virglfuß - in 1273 the settlement is called "domus Theotunicorum in Boçano" . Because of its location on the Eisack , there were many floods, so that the order bought the Weggenstein residence in 1392 and made it the headquarters of the Ballei in 1400. The branch hospitals in Lengmoos (from 1234) and Sterzing (from 1254), run by the Coming Bozen, became comedians of their own. From 1269 there was a Landkomtur who had a vote in the Tyrolean Landtag from 1534 to 1918.

With the Bavarian occupation of Tyrol at the time of Napoleon, the spiritual areas were secularized until 1811 and the Teutonic Order lost all of its possessions. Under Emperor Franz II , the order was restituted and in fact received its territories and rights back in 1819. In 1834 Emperor Franz II officially renounced all rights under Article 12 of the Pressburg Peace and the order became an independent spiritual institute in Austria. He was able to maintain this status until 1929, when the Teutonic Order was expropriated under Mussolini. In some cases, houses and real estate could be preserved for the order, it was absorbed into the family community of the Teutonic Order.

Situation today

Today the ball "On the Adige and in the mountains" of the Familiaren (third branch of the Teutonic Order) exists in South Tyrol. Since 2010 the commandery "Am Inn und Hohen Rhein" belongs to the Ballei. The building of the Kommende Lengmoos is still owned by the Teutonic Order. Today it serves as a pastoral and cultural center for the Eisack Valley.

The Teutonic Order has looked after the parish of Lana since 1202; in addition, the parishes Herz Jesu in Gargazon , Mariä Himmelfahrt in Lengmoos , St. Leonhard in Oberinn , St. Leonhard von Limoges in St. Leonhard in Passeier , Mariä Himmelfahrt in Sarnthein , Herz-Jesu in Siebeneich , St. Luzia in Unterinn , St Joseph in Vilpian , St. Severin in Völlan and St. Vigilius in Wangen looked after by the order. The Marianum-Deutschhaus and the Peter-Rigler -Heim (student residence) in Bozen also belong to the Ballei .
