Coat of arms of those of Hanxleden

Hanxleden (also Hunxler or Hangelscke ) is the name of an old Westphalian noble family , whose headquarters Hanxleden is today a district of Schmallenberg in the Hochsauerland district .

In the 14th and 15th centuries, the line provided the bailiff of Fredeburg for four generations . As part of the Soest feud , the brothers Hunold and Goddert, as Klevisch-Märkische officials of Fredeburg and Bilstein , initially stood against the Archbishop of Cologne, but resolved the conflict for their area of ​​responsibility through diplomatic channels as early as 1445, long before the end of the war. As a result, however, the Hanxleden house in the Fredeburg / Bilstein area was no longer detectable and was spread across five lines, three in Westphalia in the Electorate of Cologne and two in the Duchy of Jülich-Berg . The last Westphalian line expired in 1771. A branch that still exists today came to Hesse in 1614 ( Gershausen Castle ).

history

Trunk line

Siegfried von Hanxleden (* around 1180; † after 1279) lived as a knight in Hanxleden and took part in the Damiette crusade from 1217 to 1221 . After his return, he and his neighbor, Mr. von Sögtrop , founded a church on the joint estate border along with a pastor's office, from which the village of Kirchrarbach developed.

Albert von Hanxleden (* around 1200), was mentioned around 1216 and was possibly his son.

Johann I von Hanxleden (* around 1260) was mentioned in 1326 and was possibly a grandson of Albert von Hanxleden.

Goddert I. von Hanxleden (* around 1290) was mentioned 1327-1358 (first documented mention in 1327 as Godefridus de Hangeslede ). He was an arnsbergian Burgmann zu Grevenstein , Fredeburg and Schwarzenberg as well as a Gograf zu Attendorn . Schwarzenberg Castle was built from 1301 in cooperation between the Counts of Arnsberg and von der Mark and was used by both, whereby Gerhard von Plettenberg was appointed as a fief by the Brandenburg side from 1343 . Goddert married his son Johann around 1335–1340 to a woman from the Plettenberg family . In 1329 Goddert bought Eisborn, which lies on the border to the still friendly county of Mark, from his "blood friend" Lubbert von Binolen and his wife Richtmoth. Around 1335 he married Cunigunde von Binolen, apparently in his second marriage. In 1352 there was a feud between the two parties involved in Schwarzenberg Castle. Count Engelbert III. von der Mark drove out the Arnsberg castle garrison, destroyed the Arnsberg castle house on Schwarzenberg and had Klusenstein castle built on the border with Eisborn by Gerhard von Plettenberg , which was besieged in vain by Gottfried IV (Arnsberg) .

Johann II von Hanxleden (* 1315; † after 1374) was the arnsberg bailiff and castle man of Fredeburg. He was married to Catharina von Plettenberg (* approx. 1315). After Count Engelbert III. von der Mark had cremated Arnsberg in 1366, Count Gottfried IV von Arnsberg had to cede the land of Fredeburg and the rule of Bilstein to the county of Mark in 1366 . From then on, Johann was the Klevisch-Brandenburg bailiff. However, with the acquisition of the county of Arnsberg in 1368, the archbishops of Cologne raised claims to the area.

Goddert II von Hanxleden (* around 1340; † 1410) married Catharina von Hatzfeld zu Wildenburg around 1370 . He was a Cologne-Westphalian Burgmann at Grevenstein and Fredeburg, then also Drost zu Nyle (now Roermond ) in the Duchy of Geldern under the rule of the House of Jülich-Heimbach . He seems to have cultivated the best relations with the rulers of the neighboring Duchy of Berg . He also chose the wife of his son Goddert from those around the Jülich-Heimbach family.

The offices of Fredeburg and Bilstein were transferred to his two sons Hunold and Godderts III after his death. divided up. As part of the Soest feud , the two very old people, as the Klevisch-Märkische officials, opposed Kurköln only in the initial phase, but concluded a separate peace as early as 1445. As a result, however, the von Hanxleden could no longer hold out in the Fredeburg and Bilstein area. The descendants of Hunold and Goddert III. settled partly in the northern areas of the Sauerland, partly in the sphere of influence of the House of Jülich-Heimbach.

  • Hunold von Hanxleden zu Fredeburg and Eisborn (* 1374; † 1452), 3rd son of Goddert II. And Catharina, was bailiff at Fredeburg and in 1410 received the suggestion from Cologne elector to build Bödefeld Castle. The construction took place between 1425 and 1428. After he had submitted to the Archbishop of Cologne, the latter granted the glory of Fredeburg recognition of their rights. His first marriage was to Beleke von Hückelheim , daughter of Johann von Hückelheim, Herr zu Hückelheim and Laer , and his second marriage to Gertrud von der Elpe. He died in 1452 and was buried in the collegiate church of St. Walburga in Meschede .

  • Goddert III. von Hanxleden (* around 1376; † after 1445), 4th son of Goddert II. and Catharina, was Miles zu Fredeburg, bailiff at Bilstein and Drost zu Nyle. In 1445, the archbishop agreed with the garrison of Bilstein Castle and the associated community that the area should fall to the Archbishopric if the Duke of Kleve did not release the castle in due time. Goddert married Irmgard von Calcum , known as Leuchtmar , in 1403 . Her sons were:

Around 1501 he had the Hanxledenschen Grftenhof built there on an artificial island south of the outer bailey of the now dilapidated Kettelburg. In 1536 the County of Waldeck pledged the Assinghauser Grund to Hanxleden. The pledge ended fifteen years later.
        • Wigand II von Hanxleden (* around 1504, † 1576), Lord of Körtlinghausen and Herdringen, was married to Gertrud von Schorlemer since 1543 . The couple had seven children.

The family lived there and expanded the house into a prestigious manor in the 17th century. In 1771 the Ostwiger line of the Hanxleden went out and ownership passed to the family of the Barons von Lüninck .

Hanxleden zu Bödefeld (extinguished)

Dietrich von Hanxleden (* around 1431), son of Hunold von Hanxleden's second marriage with Gertrud von der Elpes, inherited Bödefeld Castle and married Anna von Bruch around 1470.

Her descendant Johann von Hanxleden was the last knight in the castle. Around 1540 he founded the place "Lichtenscheid", today Altastenberg , district of Winterberg , where he settled charcoal burners and shepherds there. As a result he came into conflict with the citizens of Winterberg, who claimed the land for themselves. The area was subject to taxes to the Count of Waldeck until the end of the Electoral Cologne rule .

Johann had a daughter Anna and an illegitimate son Jürgen . After his death, around 1550, the castle loan passed to the family of his son-in-law, the Knights of Dersch .
