Haziga of Diessen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Haziga (* around 1040; † August 1, 1104 ) is the first known ancestor of the Wittelsbach family and founder of the Bayrischzell monastery .

Life

origin

The origin of the Haziga is not clearly established:

  • She is often accepted as the daughter of Count Friedrich II. Von Dießen , Domvogt of Regensburg.
  • It is also possible that it came from the house of the so-called Counts of Kühbach , who supposedly died out with her.
  • Chronicon Schirense , written in the 13th century, mentions her place of birth as Castle Scheyern and thus as Countess von Scheyern.
  • In other sources she is believed to be a royal Arragon princess .
  • She is also believed to be the daughter of Gebhard II, Count von Sulzbach.
  • Gottfried Mayr suggests Pabo and Hazacha, widow of a Piligrim, as parents of Haziga. Hazacha is a daughter of Count Altmann I of Freising.

Other names

Depending on the source, it is also called Hazecha , Hadagunde , Hazga or Hadag .

Marriages

Her first marriage was to Count Hermann I von Kastl († January 27, 1056). In her second marriage, she married Count Otto I. von Scheyern , who is believed to have been married in his first marriage.

Foundation and work

Haziga's first husband Hermann I von Kastl began to develop the area around Bayrischzell and make it habitable. After the death of her second husband Otto I. von Scheyern, Haziga founded a Benedictine monastery in Bayrischzell , which initially consisted of a hermitage with two godly nobles. In 1077, however, Ellenhard, the bishop of Pola , was able to consecrate a church in honor of St. Margaretha. Due to the unfavorable geographical location of the monastery, the monastery was relocated to Fischbachau around 1085 through an exchange of territory with the Bishop of Freising . There she first built the Marienkirche (consecration in 1087), in order to later build a new church with monastery buildings in honor of St. Martin. To this end, she called 12 priests and 12 lay brothers from the Sankt Petersstift Hirsau . In 1101 the monastery was subordinated to the Holy See in Rome. The monastic community was supposed to be resettled twice: first on the Petersberg near Eisenhofen an der Glonn, and finally to Scheyern . Abbot Konrad von Scheyern (1206–1225) recorded these events in his monastery chronicle.

Haziga was buried in Fischbachau and her bones were later reburied in Scheyern.

progeny

Haziga probably had two sons and a daughter with Hermann I. von Kastl:

  • Hermann II, Margrave of Banz († after 1071)
  • Friedrich I, Count of Kastl and Habsberg, main founder of the Kastl Monastery († November 10, 1103)
  • Mathilde, married Rapoto III. Graf in Upper Traungau († October 15, 1080)

But there are also sources that report childlessness in the first marriage. There is also speculation about a second marriage to a Werner , but this is equated with Otto I. von Scheyern.

The children from the second marriage to Otto I. von Scheyern can be identified according to the inheritance and the naming:
