Proysis

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Proyse (or Proise) was the name of an old Eichsfeld noble family in northwest Thuringia and northeast Hesse .

history

The Proyse were an old noble family in the Obereichsfeld and in the southern Hessian and Thuringian areas. It is not known where they originally had their headquarters. They were often mentioned as witnesses in documents from the Reifenstein monastery, but also in Thuringian documents. For several generations they were castle men in Treffurt , Wanfried and at Burg Bischofstein .

In the 14th century they were also part owners of Bodenstein Castle and owned Bebendorf . In 1352 a knight von Proyse from Wanfried pledged a saddle yard belonging to Konrad Zupich in Bebendorf with a hoof of land to the church on the Hülfensberg . Finally they sell Bebendorf in 1381 to the Anrode monastery , which was already owned by the Hülfensberg.

At the beginning of the 15th century they still owned a castle loan and an outbuilding in Wanfried, the latter they sold to von Keudell . From the middle of the 15th century there are no more documented mentions of the noble family.

Otto Posse distinguishes between two lines of those from Proise, one with four flags and the other two roses. The rose in the coat of arms suggests a relationship with those of Worbis .

  • Seal of Herdan von Proise 1380

  • Albert von Proise seals "de Worbez" in 1336

  • Coat of arms of those of Proyse in Siebmacher's book of arms
