Raitenbuch (noble family)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Family coat of arms in Siebmacher's coat of arms book

The Raitenbuchers were a ministerial family of the Regensburg bishopric . As such, they appear in the 12th century, but should go back well into the 11th century.

history

The seat of the Raitenbucher was not the central place Beratzhausen , where the court of the Regensburg bishop, where also kings stopped, was located, but in the now defunct Raitenbuch Castle or in Hausraitenbuch . They are based in Hohenfels around 1200 and then call themselves after this castle. The family line is divided into the Hohenfels and the Ehrenfels in the 13th century . The ministerials who later resided in Hausraitenbuch instead of the Raitenbuchers, who in the 13th century took over the inheritance officeheld in the diocese of Regensburg and called themselves Raitenbucher, were Regensburg servants and were not subordinate to the Hohenfelsers; So it is also logical that Hausraitenbuch remained in the hands of the Regensburg bishop, while Hohenfels and Ehrenfels were allodized in the 14th century .

The leading names of the family are Nizo , Konrad (Kuno) and Heinrich . They are first mentioned as Hochstiftministeriale around 1126, when Nizo von Raitenbuch and Adelgoz von Raitenbuch appeared as witnesses for the Sankt Emmeram monastery . Also in 1130, when Bishop Kuno I from the Raitenbuch family confirmed a donation to the Mondsee Monastery , Hizo (!) De Reittenbuoch and his son Conradus appear as witnesses. Konrad von Raitenbuch appears for the last time in 1170 in a traditional note from Berchtesgaden . Another Nizo von Raitenbuch was Ministeriale of the Burgraves of Regensburg (before 1176), he is mentioned in a document from 1180/1182 and was married to Judith (Juta), the daughter of Herrand II. Von Falkenberg and also Herrnstein . Children from this marriage were again a Konrad and the daughter Agnes , who married Albero lupus de Bokisberc . This Konrad is the first to name himself after Hohenfels. Konrad II von Raitenbuch was another bishop of Regensburg from the Raitenbuch family, who died on June 11, 1185.

The ministerials named themselves after Hohenfels for the first time when Count Ulrich von Velburg ceded Helfenberg Castle near Lengenfeld to the Regensburg Monastery before 1217 . At the beginning of the 14th century, the riding bookers left the bishop's familia and set about establishing imperial dominions.
