Margraviate Baden-Hachberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Family coat of arms of the margraves of Baden-Hachberg

The margraviate of Baden-Hachberg was created around 1212 by splitting off from the margraviate of Baden . Heinrich I and his brother Hermann shared the inheritance of their father Hermann IV, who died in 1190. The margraviate existed as an independent territory until Otto II von Hachberg sold his property to the margrave Bernhard I von Baden in 1415 . In the margraviate of Baden - later the margraviate of Baden-Durlach - the territory formed the Oberamt Hochberg .

history

1212-1306

Ancestral castle was the stronghold on the Hachberg near Emmendingen . In the course of the 13th century, the Hachberger line was able to assert itself against the competition of the Counts of Freiburg in the area between the Black Forest and the Rhine ( Breisgau ).

1306-1415

Expansion of the margraviate of Baden-Hachberg around 1410. The Prechtal rulership , which was acquired in 1409 and was a condominium with the Fürstenberg family, is shown in green .

1306 took place between the third Hachberg margrave Heinrich III. (1290-1330) and his brother Rudolf I (1290-1313) a division of the estate, as the direct result of which Hachberg and the city of Emmendingen were transferred to Heinrich. Between 1390 and 1409 there was a conflict with the Counts of Fürstenberg over the Prechtal rule , which was then resolved by the construction of a condominium .

Rudolf received the rule of Sausenberg with the new ancestral seat, the Sausenburg , and thus the bailiwick of the priests Bürgeln , Sitzenkirch and Weitenau of the St. Blasien monastery . In 1315 the rule of Rötteln came to the margraves of Hachberg-Sausenberg and in 1444 the rule of Badenweiler .

The margraviate with ancestral seat in Hochburg existed until 1415, when Margrave Otto II von Hachberg sold the castle and rule of Hachberg to his distant cousin, Margrave Bernhard I von Baden , after the Hachberg-Sausenberg branch line had not been offered. With the death of Otto II in 1418, the Hachberg-Hachberg line became extinct.

While the margraviate of Baden-Hachberg came to an end as early as 1415, the southern margraviate of Hachberg-Sausenberg did not return to the main line in the persona of Christoph I of Baden until 1503 ("Röttelsche Gemächte").

1584-1590

From 1584 to 1590 there was a new edition of the margraviate of Baden-Hachberg when Jakob III. from the Baden-Durlach line, the area was assigned when the country was divided with his brothers Ernst Friedrich and Georg Friedrich .

coat of arms

The emblem of the Margrave of Baden-Hachberg corresponded to the yellow-red-yellow stem Coat of arms of Baden , however, was in contrast to the main line, the first buffalo horns with Linde branches used with Capricorn horns as crest out.

However, the combination of the Baden family coat of arms with the coat of arms of the Hinteren Grafschaft Sponheim , which Jacob I of Baden used from 1444, is also regarded as the Hachberg coat of arms .

In addition, from Margrave Ernst I of Baden-Durlach, the “ Breisgauer Lion” - actually the seal of the Free County of Burgundy , which was mistakenly held for the family coat of arms of the Zähringer family - was used as a symbol for the Margraviate of Hachberg, for example in the great coat of arms of the Grand Duchy Baden until 1830 .

religion

The independent existence of the margravate ended before the Reformation . Baden-Hachberg was later part of the margraviate of Baden-Durlach , where the Reformation was introduced in 1556.

Under James III. there was an attempt to reintroduce Catholicism in 1590 , which was prevented by the unnatural death of Jacob in the same year.
