history

Origin and possessions

The Idunspeuger were a local knightly family. The ancestral seat of the noble family was Jedenspeugen Castle (today Jedenspeigen Castle ) in the eastern Weinviertel in today's municipality of Jedenspeigen ( Gänserndorf district , Lower Austria , formerly the Zistersdorf judicial district ), which was first mentioned in 1113 as Hiedungispuigin from 1295 to 1497 . In 1275 the Tursen von Rauheneck in Jedenspeigen were wealthy and the castle is only mentioned in 1296 as Ydungspiugen . At the beginning of the 16th century, Jedenspeigen Castle passed from the knightly noble family of Idunspeugen into the possession of the Steinpeiss . The brothers Kaspar , Jörg and Balthasar entered into an alliance with the mercenary leader Pankraz von Holitsch from Moravia around 1440 . They devastated in a dispute with Emperor Ferdinand III . the surrounding country, which is why the estates sent 113 mounted mercenaries and 452 foot soldiers to siege the castle in 1441, captured and destroyed it. Kaspar was able to escape and the rule was expropriated. The family later got her back and in 1497 Clara von Jedenspeigen was married to Max Steinpeiß . The barons of Lamberg then owned the rulership from 1524 to 1570.

Johann der Jedenspeuger (Jedenspeigen) , who worked from 1388 to 1394 as a burgrave of the noble family of Meinhardins, can be found in the list of provincial governors of Tyrol .

Ennobling and dynastic marriages

The noble family achieved the knighthood ( Ritter zu Idunspeugen ( Jedenspeigen )). The Idunspeugen joined through dynastic marriages with some noble families such as B. the Herberstein and Steinpeiss. It became extinct in the first years of the 17th century with Wilhelm Dietrich von Idunspeugen in the male line .
