Irmgard von Braunshorn
Irmgard von Braunshorn (* around 1215, † 1277 ) from the von Braunshorn family was heir to the Hunsrück knight Arnold von Braunshorn-Stahleck, who is mentioned in a document from 1211 to 1239.
Before 1235 she married Philip II, Herr von Wildenburg . Her father withdrew (before) 1235 to the Cistercian monastery Himmerod in the Eifel and put his daughter and his son-in-law in the rights of his property. With these Hunsrück estates , the Wildenberger property almost doubled . The Maria Engelport monastery was later endowed with a large part of this inheritance . It can therefore be assumed that Engelport would not have been established for the second time in 1262 without Irmgard von Braunshorn.
Her relatives and their heirs (von Winneburg and Beilstein ) remained loyal to Engelport Monastery, which many of them had chosen as their burial place, for centuries and generously made donations.
