Coat of arms of the Counts of Ebersberg

The powerful and rich Bavarian family of the Counts of Sempt-Ebersberg , also Counts of Sempt or Counts of Ebersberg , had its origins in the time of Emperor Arnulf of Carinthia († 899) with Count Sighart († 906) from the Sieghardinger family and ended with Count Adalbero II. 1045. The Counts of Sempt-Ebersberg were also the first margraves of the Mark Carniola ; they ruled as such from 1004 until the family died out. At times, through a clever marriage policy and legacy, their domain extended from the Upper Bavarian cities of Ebersberg and Erding to today's Carinthia . In 934 the counts founded the Ebersberg monastery . In 1036 the area was also extended over the Mark an der Sann .
