history

The family is first mentioned in 1155 with Ardnold de Redere . The secured trunk line begins with Otto von Redern († around 1482). The headquarters were probably in the Anhalt town of Rieder (Redere) in the Harz district . From the middle of the 13th century a line appears in the Altmark (which was extinguished in 1678) , next to the end of the 13th century there is also a line to the right of the Elbe, as far as Silesia . The genealogical connection of the Anhalt-Brandenburg Redern and their Austrian branch with the Silesian Redern (later Roedern) is controversial, as the two families had different coats of arms. In 1669, however, the coats of arms were united by an imperial diploma.

The Silesian von Redern , later Roedern , acquired - starting from their ancestral home in Ruppersdorf near Breslau , where the knight family had been based since the 12th century - over time, further possessions in Silesia, such as Tost and Peiskretscham , as well as in Brandenburg , Anhalt and the Upper Lusatia .

From this Silesian line, on April 1, 1554, Friedrich von Rödern acquired the Bohemian rule Friedland - Seidenberg, which had previously belonged to the Biebersteiners , which had been extinct since 1551, for 40,000 thalers from Ferdinand I. His sons Melchior von Redern (1555-1600), imperial military leader in the Turkish wars, and Christoph built the Liberec Castle (Reichenberg). The Bohemian property was confiscated by the sovereign in 1620 after the Battle of the White Mountain due to the participation of the owner Christoph von Redern on the part of the rebels and handed over to Albrecht von Waldstein in 1621 .

On September 29, 1582, Hans von Redern from the Silesian line acquired control of the town of Krappitz and the surrounding villages from the Bohemian Chamber . The landlords, raised to the rank of count in 1669, vigorously advocated the growth of the city. After the Krappitzer line expired in 1765, the rule was sold to the Counts of Haugwitz .

Sigismund Ehrenreich von Redern from the Brandenburg line acquired the royal rule of Königsbrück and the Cosel manor in 1773 , which his son Sigismund Ehrenreich Johann von Redern sold in 1795. The Brandenburg Redern owned Schwante Castle until 1888 and Gut and Lanke Castle from 1827 to 1914 . The Berlin Palais Redern , Unter den Linden 1 / corner Pariser Platz , was built between 1830 and 1833 by Karl Friedrich Schinkel by converting a baroque predecessor building for the general manager of the Royal Drama in Berlin, Count Friedrich Wilhelm von Redern ; In 1906 it had to give way to the Hotel Adlon .
