history

A Niclas von Fulbach is mentioned in 1235, in 1285 a Gottfried v. F. holds the whole village of Raubach and a farm in Ebra, which presumably meant the town of Ebern with the current district of Ruppach.

In the 14th century the family was entrusted with the management of the extensive property of the Banz monastery in the lower Itzgrund . The older name Kamerer von Zeyl , which is mentioned in Scheibler's coat of arms , indicates on the one hand a connection to the Kammerern, v. Chambers, Cämmerer, feudal people of the Hochstift Würzburg, expired in 1678, Nuremberg. (. See, Scholer, Histor family crest in Franken, S. 62, panel 37, Siebmacher band.

Zilon = border / direction) in the immediate vicinity of the Gleusdorf estate.

On their fief , the family named themselves after the water of the Füllbach von Fulbach and resided at Gleusdorf Castle . Sebastian von Fulbach's widow died there in 1576. In 1582 Georg and Valentin von Fulbach on Gleusdorf can still be found. The family's epitaphs are in the parish church of St. Sebastian in Mürsbach . In Rannungen , a sandstone coat of arms from 1555 on the cellar of the former Unterwirt indicates the rule of the Fulbach.

Because the church property came from a donation from the Milz Monastery to the Fulda Abbey in 800, the von Fulbach family was part of the Fulda fiefdom . As part of the imperial free knighthood, it also belongs to the Franconian knight canton of Baunach .
