Coat of arms of the servants

The Diener family (also Dyener or Diner ) was a Munich patrician family .

history

The servants, like the Munich patricians Schluder, come from the native knight family of the Sachsenhauser, who sat on its fortress Sachsenhausen near Deining on the Isar . As early as the 12th century, Dominus Rapoto Slutei de Sachsenhausen , a member of the family, donated several of his serfs to Schäftlarn Abbey . A document from 1303 names Mr. Chunrati the servant and Heinrich the Sluder his brother. A ducal city judge named Herr Konrad der Diener is documented for the years 1309 and 1315 . In his second tenure as city judge from 1331 to 1341, he prepared a collection of Munich city law on behalf of Ludwig the Bavarian , some of which remained valid until the 20th century. He sealed a document in 1336 and in another 1341 he was named the heir [the honorable] knight Mr. Chunrad the Dyener .

A member of the family of the same name also sat as a representative of the family in the inner Munich city council from 1365 . As early as 1393 listed among the witnesses in the land partition deed of the Dukes Stephan, Friedrich and Johann of Munich, in 1395 the same Chunrat of the Dyener citizens of Munich is called the Erberg Mann [the honorable man]. Wilhelm Diener was an internal councilor from 1486 to 1494, then in 1495, 1496 and 1497 mayor of Landshut , where he died in 1502 and left a reputation as a good businessman.

Dienerstraße in Munich's old town east of the New Town Hall was named after the Diener family before 1368, as they owned a house there.

coat of arms

The coat of arms of the servants shows in the black shield two silver, vertical diamonds standing side by side. On the helmet with black and silver covers, according to a seal from 1335, there is an umbrella board , named like the shield image, or according to a seal from 1377, a closed flight, also named like the shield.

This means that the servants belong to the same coat of arms as the knightly Sachsenhauser, who are related to Titan von Hefner (two red diamonds on a silver background) and the Munich patrician family Schluder (two black diamonds on a silver background), as well as probably the Munich family of the Uniger von Kitzpüchel von which seals from 1318 and 1409 have been preserved.
