Lords of Perg and Machland

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The lords of Perg and Machland were in the wake of the Babenberg margraves

The Lords of Perg are originally a noble family who settled in the Machland from 1025 onwards and in the 11th and 12th centuries, in the wake of the Babenberg margraves, who were related to them, came to great possession and high esteem.

You have under the Margraves Adalbert the Victorious , Ernst , Leopold II. , Leopold III. (the saint) , Leopold IV. , Heinrich II. (Jasomirgott) as well as Leopold V. Bailiffs took over, cleared forests, founded villages, built castles and churches, made donations to churches and monasteries, donated monasteries, participated in armed conflicts and crusades and pursued a property-expanding marriage policy.

After they died out towards the end of the 12th century, a large part of their possessions fell to the Babenbergers, unless they had given them to their daughters as trousseau due to the marriage or used them for gifts or foundations.

The Herren von Perg (spellings partly also Perge, Peraga, Berg, Berge, Berga) split into the two lines Herren von Perg and Herren von Machland after the second generation . When the local family estates were divided up, the Machländer line received the territory east of the Tobrabach , the Falkenauerbach and the small Naarn in the north and in the south east of a line over the Naarn to Ruprechtshofen and the Danube, while the Pergern remained the part west of the border.

Family members of the lords of Perg and Machland also called themselves lords of Ellenperg, Lutisdorf (Lautisdorf, Loutisdorf, Lobesdorf, Lousdorf), von Windberg (Wimberg), von Albrechtsberg , von Ofthering, von Klamm, von Klingenberg, von Blasenstein.

coat of arms

Coat of arms of the Lords of Perg

Upper Austria. State coat of arms

In a document in the Bavarian State Archives in Munich, a fragment of a seal of Vogtes Friedrich von Perg has been preserved. In the shield you can see two ascending rafters pointing upwards, as well as the letters ADWAG, which means advocate = Vogt. The colors are red and white, similar to the Machländer coat of arms.

Signs with initially one and later two rafters pointing upwards can later be found as factory signs on Schwarzhafner goods produced in the Vreitl'schen workshops in the Machlandviertel. The Vreitl's were originally among the men of the Free von Perg or von Machland and later the Babenberg sovereigns. Their seat was in today's Frühstorf, a village in the municipality of Arbing .

Because the Machland was part of the Babenberg sovereign territory at a very early stage, partly due to family relationships , the coat of arms used in the Duchy of Austria for the region above the Enns from 1390 and that of the Machländer were used as a model for the Upper Austrian coat of arms .

Origin and Distribution

The origin of the Lords of Perg cannot be clearly traced. Due to the dynastic connections and possessions, different areas in Bavaria come into question.

For the support of the papal party in the battle of Mailberg at the beginning of the investiture controversy , which lasted until 1122 , the Lords of Perg received land, goods, hunting areas, court rights, church and monastery bailiffs from the diocese of Passau . Towards the end of the 11th century, the Lords of Perg were among the most influential families in what was then the Mark of Austria ( Ostarrichi ). They could afford to make pious donations and foundations, to give land and farm goods to followers, and to build castles and their own churches . The gentlemen von Perg and (after their division into two lines) also those von Machland enjoyed a high reputation, which is proven by the many documents in which they appeared as witnesses.

Literature about the family of the Lords von Perg and Machland can be found in numerous sources as early as the 19th century.

I.a. the kinship / tribal equality between the nobles of Perg and the nobles of Machland is judged controversially.

The following years indicate the period of the documentary mentions. Dates of birth are marked with * and dates of death with †.

An ancestor of the Lords of Perg, Pero von Pergkirchen, gave the village Pergkirchen as well as the market and the later town of Perg . He is said to have belonged to the family of the people (descendants of Engelpero or Adalpero or similar) and built a castle church complex (see graphic), which he called Perokirchen and which was probably a wooden defense system with ramparts, picket fences and moats. Pero was probably buried here too.

The most important family member today is Otto von Machland (Otto II.?), Who founded the monasteries Baumgartenberg and Waldhausen together with his wife Jutta .

The last noble representative of the Lords of Perg was Frederick II († July 15, 1191), that of the Lords of Machland was Walchun IV († 1162), with descendants of Adelheid, the daughter of Walchun IV., Up to Ulrich I . Graf von Clam / Velburg (1188, † 1218) are understandable.
