Friedrich von Büren

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich von Büren ( Latin: Friedericus de Buren ) was a progenitor of the Staufer family in the 11th century.

mention

Friedrich von Büren was only mentioned in a list of ancestors of Emperor Friedrich Barbarossa , which was drawn up in 1153 by Wibald von Stablo . In it a Fridericus was named as his father . This short list does not contain any further information.

Boers

The location of Buren Castle is unknown.

Research has repeatedly considered the laundry castle near Wäschenbeuren as the seat of Friedrich. The castle complex preserved there today was only built in the 13th century.

The Burgstall Burren , which is 600 meters west of the laundry castle , could have been Friedrich's seat. However, due to its small size and representativeness, this location is unlikely.

Marriage and offspring

Friedrich was married to Hildegard von Egisheim . This probably came from the influential Count Egisheim - Dagsburg in Alsace . Her paternal uncle was probably the future Pope Leo IX. Hildegard brought great goods into the marriage.

The two had six children.

⚭ 1086/1087 Agnes von Waiblingen (* late 1072; † 24 September 1143), daughter of Emperor Heinrich IV. From the Salian royal family
  • Konrad († after autumn 1094, probably before July 1095)
  • Walther († after July 23, 1095, before 1103)

It is believed that Friedrich was originally buried in Lorch in the then Romanesque church of the Augustinian Canons' Monastery founded by his father and was reburied around 1140 when his son was reburied from the collegiate church down in the village to the burial place in the Lorch monastery . In 1475 Abbot Nikolas Schenk von Arberg had all the Staufer graves opened in the central nave, in front of the steps of the choir and in the choir and the remains were collected in a tumba, which stands in the central nave of the monastery church and where Friedrich von Büren will also have found his final resting place.
