The village of Haimendorf is a district of Röthenbach an der Pegnitz in the district of Nürnberger Land in Middle Franconia .
Geographical location
The village is located about 17 kilometers east of Nuremberg , right at the foot of the Moritzberg (Frankenalb) , a foothill of the Franconian Jura . Diepersdorf joins southwest of the Rockenbrunn district .
history
In documents from 1300 to 1311 the Ministeriale "Friedrich von Haimendorf" is mentioned. This family owned the knight's seat until around 1380. It then passed to various owners, including (after 1387) the wealthy coal and steel entrepreneur Herdegen Valzner . The von Seckendorff family followed in 1448, who in turn sold Haimendorf in 1452 to the Nuremberg patrician Herdegen Tucher , and in 1476 the property finally came to Sigmund Fürer when Anna Tucher married. Since then it has been the headquarters of the Nuremberg patrician family, the Fürer von Haimendorf .
Haimendorfer Castle has probably been in ruins since the First Margrave War in 1449. From 1512 the son of Anna and Sigmund, Christoph III. Fürer, built a new half-timbered building on a high, massive base, but in 1552 the Margrave of Ansbach, Albrecht Alkibiades , destroyed this new building in the Second Margrave War when he was up to mischief in the Nürnberger Land. The administrator of the family foundation Carl Fürer and his brothers had the castle rebuilt from 1562 to 1566. Carl Fürer and his mounted servant were slain by robbers on the way to Haimendorf on the road from Schwaig to Diepersdorf in 1567 ; but his blood-smeared horse ran home alone with the money in the saddlebags that the robbers were after. The so-called Fürerstein remembers this tragic event at the scene of the crime .
The foundations and walls of the previous building were used for the new building, but the building was enlarged on a pile grid into the moat. The castle has been preserved in this form to this day, including the original half-hip roof with two corner towers and pointed helmets. Today, the building looks like stone, but remains of the frame testify that the facade was painted in light red with a white dummy joint network during the construction period. The von Fürer coat of arms with the year "1565" is located above the entrance. The manor house once stood in an inner moat, which was followed by a high inner rampart at a distance of about 10 meters. This was surrounded by a second moat, also lined with stone masonry, which has been partially preserved to this day. From the outer bailey in the south of the castle, drawbridges were originally used to cross the moats. In the 19th century, the ramparts on the south and west sides were removed, the trenches filled in and turned into gardens. The interior has largely retained the construction and equipment of the time.
At the end of the 1990s, Marie-Luise Fürer von Haimendorf-Edle von Oetinger took on the restoration of the palace. After her death in 2005, her husband, Bolko von Oetinger , with the support of her three daughters, continued the work in her favor. In 2011 the restoration in Munich was awarded the Monument Prize of the Hypo-Kulturstiftung. Haimendorf Castle is one of the most important and best-preserved aristocratic residences of the Renaissance in Franconia . It is essentially preserved as it was built in 1565.
At the beginning of the 18th century, Christoph Fürer von Haimendorf was President of the Pegnesian Order of Flowers , a language and literary society founded in 1644 from the Baroque period, which declared Moritzberg to be its Parnassus . The chapel of St. Mauritius der Fürer von Haimendorf is located on the Moritzberg .
With the community edict (1808) Haimendorf became a politically independent community, to which the places Grüne Au , Moritzberg , Renzenhof and Rockenbrunn belonged. On July 1, 1972, it was incorporated into Röthenbach an der Pegnitz as part of the Bavarian regional reform .
