Family coat of arms

The Barons and from Manndorff to Pfannhofen and Wissenau are the Carinthian nobility angehöriges Austrian noble family .

Origin and status surveys

Alongside the Metnitz, the Manndorff are the oldest still existing Carinthian aristocratic family . The spelling of the name changed between Manndorff, Manndorf, Mandorf, Mondorf, Monsdorf, Mansdorf and Manstorff.

The first bearer of the name, Hartemanus miles de Mondorf, appears in a document in February 1214 in front of Acre in the Kingdom of Jerusalem as a witness on a deed of donation from the Wicard von Karlsperg about one of his Carinthian properties to the St. Johannis Hospital in Jerusalem. In addition to Manndorff, there are also other members of long-established Carinthian aristocratic families, such as Silberberg, Gurniz and Perneck, who were on a pilgrimage to the holy land together with the highly free Wicard von Karlsperg. The exact origin of this first Manndorff remains in the dark.

According to a legend written down by Georg Siegmund Freiherr von und zu Manndorff in his “Manndorferischer Stamen Paumb” written in 1688 in Manndorf Castle, in 1118 the Duke of Württemberg was given a “great wild man, and the prince also waved a great one Wife has given prevention and after she mostly shows sins to Khinder, the prince has given them all a village and given them Manndorff, after which the prince of Wierenberg had a war over which Mandorffer applied several of the same wild man sins, well behave like a knight in warfare, so then the prince made them into a coat of arms-like noblemen and gave them a naked, wild, brave man in the coat of arms and 3 war skewers ... ” . There is no historical evidence for this story.

In the 13th and 14th centuries, many other Manndorff in Carinthia are documented and the family is mentioned as a state in Carinthia in the Carinthian nobility register from 1446.

Hans von und zu Manndorf, Lord of Manndorf, Gurnitz, Waldenstein, Wiesenau and Flaschberg, the imperial general taker in Carinthia, was also accepted into the state of Krain on January 3, 1625 .

The family of Emperor Ferdinand III received the imperial and hereditary-Austrian barons with "Lord of Pfannhoffen and Wißenau" and the association of coats of arms with those of the extinct Haßlinger zu Pfannhofen and Seepühl and the extinct von Pibriach zum Biberstein . in Ebersdorf on September 15, 1644.
