Herrand I. († around 1222) from the noble family of the Lords von Wildon was Styrian Ministeriale .

Life

Herrand was a son of Richer von Eferding - Hengist - Riegersburg and a daughter of the Traisener Hartnid von Ort -Riegersburg. It is documented from 1147 to 1175 as "von Riegersburg" and from 1174 to 1222 as "von Wildon ". In 1191 he was named as the Styrian Duke's Truchsess .

Around 1174 he kidnapped together with Count Wilhelm III. von Heunburg two of the heirloom daughters of the high free Liutold von Gutenberg , as he did not agree with the suitors. This successful action took place with the use of force and both sides were killed and injured. At the mediation of Archbishop Adalbert , reconciliation and marriages took place and after Liutold's death in 1189 and his widow Elisabeth von Peilstein in 1210, Herrand inherited Gutenberg with Weiz and Waldstein .

From 1197 to 1215 Herrand promoted the entry of the Order of St. John into Styria: His relatives Hartnid von Riegersburg and Richer von Wildon had participated in the Second Crusade (1147–1149) and, like many other crusaders, found shelter and care under this knightly order, his father-in-law Liutold died in the Third Crusade . In 1197 Herrand gave the order the right of patronage over the church in Übersbach with the right to toe in nine villages and hamlets: Ubilsbach, Richersdorf, Lintbach, Dietrichsdorf, Hermansdorf, Pirchisvelt, Magirdorf, Radigoysdorf and Erlispach.
