Coat of arms of those of the house

Haus was the name of a noble family from Lower Saxony . The von Haus were at least feudal people.

origin

The "von Haus" go back to Reginwardus von Husen († 1147), from Wennigsen , Lower Saxony. "Husen" / "Hus" in the sense of "seat" refers to a depression one kilometer south of Wennigsen, where the "Gut Husen" once was (today: "Haus Bruch"). The von Haus were employed as officials at Lauenau Castle until the 14th century . At that time they were sitting on an estate in Hemmingen - Hiddestorf , as well as on Coldingen near Pattensen and Lauenrode near Hanover .

Work on the estate in Eimbeckhausen

Henning from the house

The brothers Brand and Hildebrand von Haus took over the property at Eimbeckhausen in 1411 from the property of Berthold von Ricklingen. Eimbeckhausen became the ancestral estate of those from Haus, but the family was also located in Bad Münder , Steinlake and Wunstorf . There were further fiefs in Wiedelah , Vienenburg , Hessisch-Oldendorf , Riepen and Steuerwald . A great-grandson of the Eimbeckhausen manor was Henning vom Haus , who became Prince-Bishop of Hildesheim in 1471 .

In Eimbeckhausen the line was continued by Hans vom Haus, son of Hans-Brand von Haus. After the death of his son Jasper in 1591, his youngest grandson Johann von Haus founded the Gutskrug zu Eimbeckhausen, the oldest pub in the Deister-Süntel Valley , while the eldest grandson, Claus (Nicolaus) von Haus, founded the estate around the Weser Renaissance mansion "Schloss Eimbeckhausen" "(demolished in the early 1970s) expanded. At the same time as the "Castle" was built, 1610–1618, the lawyer Heinrich vom Haus was councilor and later mayor of Hessisch-Oldendorf . The last owner from the family was Friedrich Ludwig von Haus († 1746), a cousin of Claus von Haus's granddaughter. Under George II, he was the Royal British Privy Councilor and previously in 1736/37 Braunschweig envoy to Vienna, where his wife Sophie Charlotte became a member of the Star Cross (in which her mother, Court Lady Jeanne Henriette de Longueil was already a member), but then left Vienna to hann. To become finance minister. In this function he shared, for example, the general skepticism of Otto Christian v. Lenthe vs. Not Prussia, and together with Minister of State Heinrich (von) Grote (1675–1753) he advised Georg II . from entering the First Silesian War , favoring a delaying tactic. Von Hauß himself was a Prussian fiefdom due to his ministerial fiefdom. Via his daughters, the inheritance came to the "von Bremer" family, which still exists today in a branch line (and later to Friedrich Franz Dietrich Graf von Bremer , increased coat of arms with Hausschem coat of arms in 1830). During the Seven Years' War, Franz Christian von Hauß led the 7B infantry regiment in Brunswick. The family's grave is mainly located under St. Martin's Church in Eimbeckhausen, and some members were also buried in monasteries such as the Obernkirchen monastery .

Burgmannshof zu Wunstorf

Sophie Charlotte von Haus, b. v. Bennigsen (1701–1775), wife of Friedrich Ludwig v. House

In the place where “Schloss Eimbeckhausen” was built in the 17th century, there was previously a moated castle that once belonged to the “de Emminghausen” family. However, there are no remains of either this or Burgmannshof's house in Münder (the roof of this building shows the Merian engraving from 1654). The situation is different with the estate in Wunstorf : In addition to a small “aristocratic site” on Neue Straße, the headquarters were located at today's address “An der Wassermühle 2”. There was an older and younger mansion here. The older one probably existed before 1615 and until 1865 (connected to the Reden ´schen Hof), the younger one was built around 1745 (by Friedrich Ludwig v. Hauß) and still exists as a monument today (so-called Bockelmann’s court). The family had been resident in the city since around 1388, about which a contract with the family v. Lenthe provides information who previously lived on the area subject to a leasehold charge to the Wunstorf monastery. The existence of a castle keep on the estate, east of the manor house (today the "Haus am Bürgerpark" stands on it) should be emphasized. Heinrich Ohlendorf (1950) refers to a document from 1220 in which Count v. Roden is allowed to build a city castle. In addition to the old town hall, he also considers the castle site on what will later be the Haus'schen estate as a possible location for this count's castle, which is mentioned in writing in 1247. If it was located there, it should have been gradually removed from the 14th century.

coat of arms

The coat of arms shows a torn silver tree trunk in red, with one branch on the right and two branches on the left. On the helmet with red and silver blankets a silver flight. The similarity to the coat of arms of the family v. Lenthe , which can also be found in the local coat of arms of Luttringhausen finds. There is evidence that both families were related by marriage in the 14th century and provided, for example, canons of the Wunstorf Monastery.

Heraldic saga

Dissertation Friedrich Ludwig von Haus

After the funeral of Henning vom Haus in Hildesheim Cathedral, a coat of arms legend was formulated by the Stadthagener brother Adolph Degenhardt. According to this, a Lockum monk and "monastery professor" named Heino (Heinrich) von Hausen was the last living member of the family in 1228 and became a crusader in the crusade of Emperor Frederick II . He then received permission to lead a worldly life and continue the tribe. Some of his sons, together with the family v. Lenthe was involved in founding the Wennigsen monastery and, due to the proximity of Husen to Deister, added a tree trunk to its coat of arms. Another part, however, is said to have called themselves Mönch-Hausen ( Münchhausen ) due to Heino's past and Heino brought in an image of the first Lockum abbot as a heraldic figure. Gottlieb Samuel Treuer refuted this legend as early as 1740.

Others

As part of a feud of Göttingen , after the conquest of Jühnde by Göttingen servants on February 10, 1486, Hermann von Haus was interned in Kurzen Strasse 5, the “Roter Turm” prison. According to tradition, he scratched his cell seat block: Harmen from home sat here, he will probably never be eaten. This was apparently destroyed in 1626 as a result of the explosion of the building, which was then used as a powder tower, although remains are said to have existed in 1914/19. In memory of the victory, the people of Göttingen immediately set up a festival day.

The play of the Langenhagener Bürger-Theater Die Entführung des Amtmannes Lorleberg (on the occasion of the 700th anniversary of the town's mentioning of a document in 2012) is based on the story of the robber baron Christopher von Haus . House had with a knight v. Bolzen agreed to take over his goods after his death - contrary to Duke Erich's instructions . When the goods were denied to him, he broke the peace in the country and traveled through the country with 300 riders until he kidnapped the rent master Heinrich Lorleberg in 1541 - the whole thing had meanwhile developed into a conflict over the land tax. Ultimately, Lorleberg could be ransomed.
