Reinach (noble family)
The Lords of Reinach are a ministerial family proven in Aargau since 1210 , who served the Counts of Lenzburg , the Counts of Kyburg , the Habsburgs and finally the Bourbons . In the 18th century, some members of the widely ramified house attained the rank of imperial princes through spiritual principalities .
origin
The Lords of Reinach named themselves after their ancestral castle Untere Rinach in Burg bei Reinach in today's Canton of Aargau . The castles Obere Rinach (also Neuere Rinach, in Herlisberg in Lucerne ) and Hintere Rinach in Rickenbach in Lucerne also formed a basis for the expansion . The sex has been documented with Arnold and Hesso de Rinacho since 1210. It probably also owned allodial goods and the development to the ministerial family arose later.
The knight Henman von Rinach , ducal Austrian councilor and governor of the Alsace bailiff, moved to the Sundgau in 1402 . As a ministerial in the service of the Habsburgs in Alsace , Upper Austria , the family created a new power base there in the 15th century and sold all their possessions and rights in Switzerland by 1545.
