Eberhard von Gemmingen († around 1532)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Eberhard von Gemmingen († around 1532) was the landlord in Gemmingen and Burgmann in Oppenheim , Alzey and Lautern.

Life

He came from the Gemminger family line of Velscher and was a son of Philipp von Gemmingen, called Schellig († 1520) and Anna von Helmstatt († 1519). In 1504 he was on the Palatinate side in the Landshut War of Succession . In 1520 he shared his father's inheritance with his brothers, with the castle as well as other goods and slopes at the family seat in Gemmingen as well as the castle fiefs in Oppenheim, Alzey and Lautern. In 1521 he set the reverse of the allocation of fiefs as his father had had against Emperor Charles V as the owner of the Duchy of Württemberg at the time. He authorized his brother Wilhelm († 1523) to receive the fiefs. He died around 1532, because in that year the other brother Hans († 1552) claimed Eberhard's fiefdom for himself and Wilhelm's son Philipp (called the Grünewald) .
