history
Around 900 Burchard († 908), 892–908 Margrave of the Sorbian Mark , was probably already owned by the county in Gau Husitin. He fell fighting the Hungarians. His sons and successors, Burchard and Bardo, joined the Saxon Duke Otto I of Saxony († 912). After the death of Ludwig the child in 911, there were armed conflicts between the dukes under King Konrad I. In 913 Otto's successor, Duke Heinrich I , drove Counts Burchard and Bardo from Thuringia and divided the Gau among his vassals.
After that, counts in Husitingau are only known in parts. In 961 Wilhelm I , Count of Weimar, was named as Count in the Gau Husitin. In 1085 and 1119 Wichman was Count in Husitingau and gave the Archbishop of Mainz two churches and ministerials in Apolda .
