Life

Heinrich, a son of Heinrich XI. Pappenheim and his wife Anna of Abensberg was in Frankfurt in 1486, on the occasion of the election and coronation of the future Emperor Maximilian I , knighted. In 1492 he moved with the army of Emperor Friedrich III. to France against Charles VIII. who had the promised bride, the Duchess of Brittany, for Maximilian I in his power. His cousins ​​Sigmund and Sebastian also took part in this procession . Together with the Pappenheim marshals Wilhelm , Alexander , Georg, Sebastian and Sigmund, Heinrich received the blood spell from the Roman-German King Maximilian I in 1497 . In this context, he was given half of the Bailiwick of Eibelstadt as a fief , as well as an entire forest district ( hat ) on the Weißenburger Forst and in Kahldorf, as well as goods in Zusmarshausen . Elector Friedrich III. von Sachsen confirmed him in the Hereditary Marshal's Office . Heinrich's marriage to a noblewoman from Hürnheim remained childless. As a result, his property was divided between his brothers Wilhelm and Alexander after his death in 1511 .
