Heinrich II of Praunheim
Heinrich II. Von Praunheim (* around 1200, named from 1225; † 1256 ) from the family of the Knights of Praunheim was the founder of the family branch of the Lords of Praunheim-Wolfskehlen through marriage.
family
His father was Heinrich I. von Praunheim , Reichsschultheiß of Frankfurt am Main , his mother Adelheid von Echzell .
Heinrich II married Adelheid von Wolfskehlen . Their family had their ancestral home in the village of the same name Wolfskehlen . Heinrich II and his wife had three sons. In the generation of his great-grandchildren, the male line of the Knights von Praunheim-Wolfskehlen died out with Emmerich von Praunheim-Wolfskehlen. His inheritance passed through his sister to the von Nagheim family .
politics
The Wolfskehlen family found themselves in financial difficulties due to the numerous Adelheid siblings and the inheritance dispute after the death of their father. Goods had to be sold to the Eberbach Monastery and Wolfskehlen Castle to Werner von Eppstein , Elector - Archbishop of Mainz , and then taken back into fiefdom . The knights of Wolfskehlen thereby became burgraves of the elector.
Positions that fell to the descendants of Heinrich II were their position as castle men in Oppenheim and the office of bailiff of the Eberbach monastery in Leeheim .
