Hofmark Gosheim

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hofmark Gosheim was originally a Hofmark of the Bergen monastery of the Benedictine nuns based in Gosheim , today a district of the municipality of Huisheim in the Swabian district of Donau-Ries ( Bavaria ).

Castle in Gosheim

Through the sale of Hans von Hirnheim, the castle and the Hofmark Gosheim with all accessories came to Pfalz-Neuburg in 1520 . The dukes exchanged these in 1529 for the provost of Hersbruck with the Bergen monastery .

The monastery was abolished in 1542 by Ottheinrich von Pfalz-Neuburg during the Reformation . After the recatholicization , Duke Wolfgang Wilhelm donated the Hofmark Gosheim, which owned the lower jurisdiction , to the Heilig Kreuz seminar in Neuburg an der Donau , which was run by Jesuits until 1773 .

The seminary renounced the lower jurisdiction in 1817. It has since been exercised by the Donauwörth district court . The lordship of the seminary ended in 1848.
