Family coat of arms of those of Liechtenstein-Kastelkorn

The former Moravian noble family Liechtenstein-Kastelkorn (also Liechtenstein-Castelcorn , Lichtenstein-Kastelkorn ) originally came from South Tyrol . His ancestral seat was Lichtenstein Castle in Laives near Bozen , which was probably built in the 12th century as the main base of the diocese of Trento .

It consists of the Princely House von und zu Liechtenstein , which was ruled in 1608 and 1623, and whose name can be traced back to Liechtenstein Castle in Lower Austria, and the Styrian family of Liechtenstein ministers with their headquarters at Liechtenstein Castle near Judenburg , from which the medieval poet Ulrich von Liechtenstein came only an identical or similar name, there were also Lichtensteiners in Franconia and those at the Swabian castle Alt-Lichtenstein .

Tyrolean time

The Lichtenstein (also Liechtenstein ) were originally ministerials of the bishops of Trento and the counts of Tyrol . In 1387 the lords of Lichtenstein were enfeoffed with the castles and courts of Karneid and Steinegg . The later Counts of Liechtenstein-Kastelkorn were able to hold this property until it died out in 1764.

The Tyrolean family provided two bishops of Trient, Georg I of Lichtenstein ( Bishop 1390–1419 ) and Ulrich IV. Of Lichtenstein ( Bishop 1493–1505 ). It appears for the first time in 1472 in the Tyrolean aristocratic registers.

One of the three lines of this house was that of Governor Wilhelm von Lichtenstein , who with his wife, a born von Stötten u. a. the children Balthasar († 1478) and Ursula (married Countess Fugger , † 1573) had.

Paul von Li (e) chtenstein (* around 1460; † between 4./10.6.1513 in Augsburg) was court marshal and confidante of Maximilian I. He was the caretaker of the court offices of Thaur near Innsbruck and Sarnthein near Bozen. In 1499 he was enfeoffed with Castelcorno in Isera near Rovereto , from which the addition of the name Kastelkorn is derived. In 1502 he acquired the Schenna castle and estate near Meran and expanded it into a family seat, and in 1505 he received the Hauptmannschaft Rattenberg am Inn as pledge.

His father Balthasar († 1478) came from a Trento family of ministerials and was in the service of the Bishop of Trento and Archduke Sigismund of Tyrol . He was married to Dorothea Fuchs von Fuchsberg .

    • After his death, this estate fell to the middle son Maximilian Rudolf on January 13, 1724 as a result of the inheritance distribution agreed between the three sons Jakob Ernst, Maximilian Rudolf and Thomas Josef.
    • Maximilian Rudolf inherited the property to his two brothers and subsequently to one of the two, the Salzburg Prince Archbishop Jakob Ernst. He bequeathed most of his property to his nephew Karl Otto Count von Salm-Neuburg.
    Wolny has three sons Jakob Ernst, Maximilian Rudolf and Thomas Josef, according to another source ( Zlin.cz - informační server - Majitelé malenovického hradu ( Memento from September 13, 2011 in the Internet Archive ); Czech) there were four sons: Philipp Paul, Jakob Ernst, Maximilian Rudolf and Thomas Josef.
