Malowetz (Czech Malovec , in the plural Malovcové z Malovic ) is the name of an ancient noble family in the Kingdom of Bohemia .

history

The family is one of the oldest noble families in Bohemia, with B ohuslav de M alowicz, miles (Malowitz in the Prachatitz district) 1313–1341 (Fontes rerum austriacarum II .; Josef Emler : Regesta Bohemiae et Moraviae, Volume III, p. 315 and Volume IV, p. 292) will appear first. At the beginning of the 15th century it branched out into two houses, descended from the brothers Peter Malowecz on Paczow and Johann Malowecz on Cheynow, which had existed in numerous lines. While the Malowecz von Paczow became extinct in the male line in 1563, a grandson of Johanns became: Zdenko the Elder Malowecz von Cheynow founder of the Malowcz von Cheynow and Winterberg family ; from his nephew: Peter Malowecz auf Kamen came the male line barons Malowetz von Malowitz and Kosotz, who died in 1900. The previously suspected tribal and coat of arms relationship with the Lords of Pardubitz ( Paní z Pardubic ) could be refuted by the latest research.

Ranks

  • Bohemian baron with improvement of coat of arms, Prague 13.10. (Diploma 26.10.) 1638 for Georg Malowetz von Cheynow and Winterberg, on Czitow, Burgrave in the Königgrätzer Kreis (BSB Volume XLVIII, p. 745 ff.)
  • Bohemian Baron, Vienna April 30, 1639 for Peter Paul Malowetz
  • Bohemian old gentleman, Vienna September 13th 1760 for the brothers Ferdinand Ignaz and Ernst Wilhelm (the younger) Malowetz von Cheynow and Winterberg, state sub-chamberlain in the Kingdom of Bohemia , died in Prague on November 17th 1770, and his cousin Joseph Malowetz von Cheynow and Winterberg (BSB vol. CCIX, p. 466).

The common headquarters are in Malovice ( Malowitz ) in the Prachiner district in Bohemia . The secured family line begins with the knight (miles) Bohuslaus de Malowicz (documented 1313-1341), also verifiable in the genealogical manual of the nobility for 1997 by CAStarke Verlag in Limburg. In 1358 Bohuslav was the envoy of Emperor Charles IV. Since 1352 the Malowetz are also known to be the owners of the Libiegitz estate , until August 10, 1559 Dionys Malowetz sold the Libiegitz, Großmalowitz , Rabin , Nestanitz and Skal estates to Wilhelm von Rosenberg , who sold the old fortress Libiegitz had it converted into a renaissance castle.

The sex was divided into several lines, two of which stood out: Malovec from Malovic and Kosoř and Malovec from Chejnov and Winterberg.

Malovec by Malovic and Kosoř

Byšov Castle, bought in 1615, but lost again soon after the Thirty Years' War
The Cerhonice manor house, confiscated from John of Malovec in 1623

Even before the battle of the White Mountain in 1620, the wealthy Mr. Johann Malowetz von Malowic was confiscated his goods, which were mostly in the Budweiser district. The judgment imposed on him in October 1622 resulted in the final loss of these goods, for the goods located outside the Budweiser district only half the monetary value should be paid to him. In 1622 the Čkyně ( Ckjn ) estate in the Prachin district was confiscated from the Zdenko von Malovec , as was the case with John of Malovec in 1623 with the Cerhonic, Čestice and Zdikau estates in the Prachin district, which were then assigned to the royal chamber . Later, however, Zdikau came to the Malowetz line from Chejnov to Winterberg. In 1661 Ferdinand Malovec von Malovic was the lord of the Radnice estate in the Pilsen region. The castle Býšov was in 1615 by the line of Malovec Malovic by the family Bejšovec of Bejšov acquired after the Thirty Years' War and the recatholicization possession came to the rich Count's house Schwarzenberg .

Maleschau Castle, assigned to the Malowetz of Malowitz on Frauenberg under the Winter King in 1620

1620 was the brothers Hans and Wenceslas Malowetz of Malovice on Fraunberg after their goods and property devastated worth several hundred thousand crowns or "the enemy" occupied had been, the King of Bohemia, the "Winter King" Frederick and the Bohemian Estates rule New Colin and Maleschau granted. Because of their participation in the class uprising in 1618, the goods of the Malowetz von Malowitz auf Frauenberg were confiscated by Emperor Ferdinand II and in 1623 transferred to Field Marshal Baltasar von Marradas , who had the rule of Frauenberg re-Catholicized.

On November 14th, 1626 Rudolf von Malowetz had to promise the Prague Archbishop Ernst Adalbert von Harrach that he would receive the Lord's Supper in catholic fashion until the upcoming Easter .

Malovec from Chejnov and Winterberg

The second line was named after its parent houses Chejnov in the Tabor district and the later added Winterberg in the Prachiner district. In 1457 King Vladislav confirmed the indisputable possession of Chejnov to John Malovec of Chejnov. The Chejnov family later lost, but Udalrich was again in possession of the same in 1513. After the uprising of the estates in 1547, Peter Malovec von Chejnov and Winterberg lost the Winterberg rule through confiscation, but in 1621 Georg was again owned by Winterberg, and he also owned Ginec in the Berauner district . In 1718, Wenzel Ernst Malovec from Chejnov and Winterberg was the lord of Hohen-Hradek and Kuňovice in the Prachin district. In 1745 Nikolaus Malovec from Chejnov and Winterberg bought the Čestice estate with Dršinko in the Prachin district, which he bequeathed to his son Joseph. Zdikau , which had been confiscated from John of the Malovec von Malovic line in 1623, became a family entourage under the Malowetz von Chejnov on Winterberg family . Johann Freiherr von Malowitz had Zdikau allodized and sold the estate to Count Franz von und zu Sickingen in 1799 . Sickingen sold the estate again in 1803.
