Pertenstein is a district in the town of Traunreut in the Upper Bavarian district of Traunstein between Matzing and Traunwalchen . There, on the banks of the Traun, is the Pertenstein Castle of the same name - one of the most important secular monuments in the Traunstein district.

Knight Engelbrecht von Taching built a castle opposite the Traunwalchen church on the banks of the Traun in 1290 and named it Perchtenstein in honor of his wife Perchta von Stein . It was later expanded into a castle. In 1383, after the death of Wilhelm des Tachinger, Pertenstein Castle (also known as Tachinger Stein ) was inherited by the Toerring (the orphans Caspar and Wilhelm von Toerring), and they have owned it to this day. In 1453 Georg, Caspar's son, got Pertenstein back, which was confiscated by Duke Heinrich the Rich for thirteen years . Later a dispute arose between several parties about the property until it was awarded to the Törringern zu Jettenbach in 1461. But it did not remain quiet for long and the parties to Stein and Jettenbach fought over ownership. In 1498 Pertenstein finally returned to Törring zu Stein; this time as a gift to Seitz IV. and Adam I. von Törring, the von Stein brothers. In 1551, after decades of legal dispute, part of the village of Traunwalchen had to be given up by the Wittelsbachers , represented by their keeper in Traunstein . The upper village with the church was subordinated to the manor of Pertenstein. Around 1600 under Barbara Lucia von Toerring-Stein, Pertenstein was expanded into a stately country residence as a Hofmarkschloss with a flourishing economy. Today, a marble slab with the Törring-Greifensee coat of arms attached to the archway reminds of this. At this time, Pertenstein was the Count's Hofmark with the right to exercise lower jurisdiction. Pertenstein lost its importance over the centuries. In 1661, the later Bishop of Regensburg, Count Adam Lorenz von Toerring-Stein , acquired the castle and had it expanded. He died in 1666 and bequeathed Pertenstein to his brother Joachim Albeck. In 1810 the Hofmark was converted into a second class patrimonial community in Matzing / Pertenstein, from which the rural community of Matzing emerged in 1848 . The community of Matzing with Pertenstein voluntarily joined the community of Traunwalchen in 1972 . In 1978 it was incorporated into the town of Traunreut together with Traunwalchen as part of the municipal reform. Ecclesiastically, the place belongs to the Catholic parish of Traunwalchen.

Use of the castle

The “Heimatbund Schloss Pertenstein”, under whose direction the castle and the associated chapel have been thoroughly renovated since the late 1960s, is counteracting the threat of decay. On the initiative of Hans Lauber, Hans Veit Graf zu Toerring-Jettenbach gave the castle to the Heimatbund as heritable building right after it was founded on February 9, 1969 . Today the palace and the Marstall Hall, located in a longitudinal wing of the manor and restored after a fire in 2002, are mainly rented and used for private celebrations such as weddings or company parties, but also for numerous cultural events such as concerts, cabarets or exhibitions.

Description of the castle

The castle is a listed building (file numbers D-1-89-154-54, -55 and -60). The description of the Bavarian State Office for Monument Preservation reads:

“Pertenstein Castle, the castle was built around 1290 by Engelbert von Taching, bequeathed to the later Counts of Törring at the end of the 14th century; Irregular three-wing building, the north wing in the core Gothic, around 1600 renovation of the west wing with gatehouse, chapel and upper floor of the tower, at the same time installation of arcades on the courtyard side, 1745–63 heightening of the north wing and interior work.

Belonging to the former manor complex north of the castle: farm yard with management building and two parallel longitudinal wings, the latter with two- or three-aisled stable vaults, built on an older basis around the middle of the 18th century (east wing) and 1830 (west wing) and expanded after fires in 1953 and 1830 Renewed in 2002; to the north, forester's house with facilities for fishing, built in 1830, external appearance 2nd half of the 19th century; four-door coach house (so-called Zehentstadel), standing transversely, after the middle of the 19th century "

The castle chapel St. Anna and Maria in Pertenstein is a special treasure. The chapel was first mentioned in a document as early as 1598. Barbara Lucia von Toerring-Stein had the chapel completely renovated in 1604:

"In the year of the Lord 1604 on July 12th, the altar in the chapel St. Anna and Maria in the castle chapel in Stein was rebuilt and consecrated by Bartholomäus Scholl, Bishop of Darien."

In the 1860s, the palace chapel was rebuilt in the Rococo style. During a renovation, however, old frescoes from 1604 came to light again.
