history

Origin and possessions

The Gender those of beef mouth was an ancient Frankish, later Styrian noble family. It first appears in a document with the Reich Ministerial Albertus Rendesmule on March 1, 1191, as a witness in a document or an oath of Emperor Heinrich VI. , in which he gives rights to the city of Pisa .

The von Rindsmaul in the Franconian area in the 12th to the 15th century

From the end of the 12th to the 15th century they have been documented in the Franconian region, so the fiefs of their Rindsmaul and their own property were initially between Neumarkt in the Upper Palatinate and Nuremberg with Grünsberg Castle , today located near the town of Altdorf in the Nürnberger Land district, as headquarters.

In 1315, a few months after the successful Gerit ze Gamolstorf ( Battle of Gammelsdorf ), King Ludwig the Bavarian certified the knight Sifried der Sweppfermann ( Seyfried Schweppermann ) compensation for expenses and transferred his castle to Grunsperg (Burg Grünsberg), the previous Schweppermanns Brother- in -law Albrecht der Rindsmaul held the same position. In 1272 Hegendorf ( Hengdorf , part of the municipality Rohr in the district of Roth in Middle Franconia ) is mentioned in a document with Albrecht Rindsmaul, who sells his belongings in and around Hegendorf to the aristocratic utilities of Sunderbühl . Albrecht also owned the expired Pyrbaum Castle (also Wolfstein zu Pyrbaum Castle ) in the market town of Pyrbaum in the Neumarkt district in Upper Palatinate ( Bavaria ), which the family sold to the von Wolfstein relatives in 1278 . She did the same in 1350 with her village "Hennenbach" ( Oberhembach ), a current town in the municipality of Pyrbaum.

In 1284 Albertus Rindesmul the Elder handed over his castle Wernfels ("Werdenfels") in the district of Wernfels in the municipality of Spalt ( Middle Franconia , district of Roth ) along with other goods to the church in Eichstätt . His sons Albertus [the younger] and Hartmannus de Rindesmaul confirmed in 1286 that their father had sold Wernfels Castle.

The Rindsmauler family was also owned by Buchberg (part of the municipality of Sengenthal in the Neumarkt district in Upper Palatinate in Bavaria), which Hans and Hartung Rindsmaul sold as a tithe to Duke Johann von Bayern in 1412.

In addition, around 1326 the Rindsmaul were keepers of the hilltop castle known as the castle ruin Niederviehhausen (also Burg Viehhausen ) in the district Viehhausen of the municipality of Sinzing in the district of Regensburg in Bavaria.

Branches of those from Rindsmaul in Styria, Carniola, Gorizia, Bohemia and Lower Austria

The documented uninterrupted line of trunks begins with Sigmund von Rindsmaul around 1500. In 1487 the Rindsmaul were included in the Tyrolean aristocratic registers. The von Rindsmaul branches branched out from Styria to Carniola, Gorizia, Bohemia and Lower Austria. With Adalbert Napoleon Johann Nepomuk Anton, canons of Olomouc , the old counts of the von Rindsmaul family died out in the male line in 1889.

The Rindsmauler were not only the former owners of the Grünsberg and Wernfels castles in their original home, as well as the Fideicommissgütern Bäreneck (with Bärnegg Castle , today a ruined castle near Elsenau (municipality of Schäffern) in Eastern Styria ), Poppendorf , Buchenstein and Kettenbach in their later Styrian homeland . They also owned Wasserberg , Frauheim , Untermaierhofen , Palais Rindsmaul and Palais Lengheimb (Hans-Sachs-Gasse) in Graz , Münichhofen , Sooß , Berneck Castle (Tyrol) (also Bernegg) , Kaunerberg municipality , Landeck district , Tyrol , Graschnitz , Palais Troyer-Spaur ( Innsbruck ) and Kronburg with Kronburg Castle , today the ruins of a rock castle between Zams and Schönwies in the Landeck district, and the Schörgelhof in Graz.

Frauheim

The Gall von Puchenstein family owned the Frauheim estate. The brothers Bernhard, Siegmund and Hans Gall transferred the property in 1514 to the captain of the Hungarian king Mathias Corvinus and later caretaker of Friedau and Ankenstein, Hans Rindsmaul , who bought many smaller goods, which he could manage from Frauheim, as well as numerous Fiefdoms. He fathered Michael von Rindsmaul , Colonel Feldzeugmeister and Imperial Councilor, who was able to expand the Frauheim rule through further acquisitions and, around 1560, expanded the building into a small castle. Andree Rindsmaul , his son, had to leave the country like all Protestants at the time of the Counter Reformation , which is why his brother Rueprecht, who had become Catholic, took over the castle and his father Michael was able to continue the expansion. Frauheim was acquired in 1685 by Johann Caspar von Kellersperg .

Untermaierhofen

The Untermaierhofen Castle was rebuilt by Hans Muerzer vom Mürzhof after a dilapidated period and sold it to Ruprecht von Rindsmaul in 1630. After some time in the hands of the Rindsmauler family, the Untermaierhofen reign was transferred from the widow of Andree Gotthardt von Rindsmaul to the Count von Rottal (noble family) at Neudau Castle .

Palais Rindsmaul, later Palais Lengheimb (Hans-Sachs-Gasse) in Graz

The property of Palais Rindsmaul was handed over tax-free in 1689 to the Austrian regimental councilor Bernhard Graf von Rindsmaul in today's Hans-Sachs-Gasse, who had today's city palace built and in 1719 to the Counts of Lengheim (aristocratic family) from Carniola , later based in Styria (15th century), sold.

Münichhofen

Münichshofen belonged u. a. the room Bergern as feudal lords, and in 1655 the castle passed through marriage to Bernhard Graf beef mouth , and later as a dowry to the Baron Leopold von Stubenberg .

Sooss

Sooß was owned by the barons of Neidegg from 1600 to 1730, who added a residential palace to the castle that was not used by the military, leaving the abandoned castle unkempt until Count Ferdinand Ehrenreich von Rindsmaul inherited the property in 1730. As the baptized child and adopted son of Ferdinand Raimund Freiherr von Neidegg , he adopted his name and coat of arms. Sooss underwent many renovations and came to Baron Josef von Hauer in 1817 through Ferdinand Ehrenreich's descendants .

Berneck (Bernegg) with Bernegg Castle (Haunerberg)

Berneck is located about 12 km southeast of Landeck and was owned by Hilprant Rasp zu Laufenbach, whose daughter, after the marriage, again came to Albrecht Rindsmaul. Albrecht sold the estate to Christian Tänzl in 1488.

Grass carving

The Graschnitz estate northeast of Kapfenberg was owned by von Rindsmaul in 1659 until they sold it to Mathias Matthisius in the same year. Before that, the Rindsmauler had, for their part, since 1650 as the widow's residence of Veronika von Ratmannsdorf, née. Baroness von Saurau (noble family) bought the dominion from her son Wilhelm in 1659.

Palais Troyer-Spaur in Innsbruck and the Kronberg property

In the Middle Ages there were two Gothic town houses on the property of today's Palais Troyer-Spaur (Innsbruck) and one was owned by the Salzburg canon Ruprecht Rindsmaul in 1494 , and later both came into the possession of the Strauss family in 1628.

Together with Kronburg, the Rindsmaul family also owned Kronburg Castle after Archduke Sigmund der Münzreich pledged the rule to the Salzburg canon Ruprecht Rindsmaul. The Roman-German King Maximilian I redeemed the pledge in 1502 and transferred it to the Count of Fieger as a fief.

Schörgelhof

The Schörgelhof (formerly: Gallerhof or Vossenburg ) was a military building and Edelshof on a small hill at the Schörgelgasse-Petersgasse intersection in Graz and belonged to Rudolf Freiherr von Rindsmaul as a lease from 1680 to 1685 .

Nobilitations and dynastic marriages

The admission into the Tyrolean aristocratic registers took place in 1487.

Andres and Rupprecht von Rindsmaul auf Pernegg and Fraunheim were raised to the Lower Austrian knighthood on January 20, 1604. The family was later ennobled with the title of baron (March 7, 1622) and subsequently with the title of count (December 28, 1665).

Ferdinand Ehrenreich Graf von Rindsmaul received permission to use his name and coat of arms through his adoptive father and godfather, Baron Ferdinand Raimund von Neidegg, through adoptive consensus (December 2, 1728) .

In 1729, not only Count Siegmund Albrecht Rindsmaul, Baron of Fraunheim and Unter-Maierhofen, Lord of the Pernegg rulership in Elsenau, Poppendorf and Puchenstein, Chamberlain, Lower Austrian Regimental Councilor and Deputy of Steyr , was accepted into the Lower Austrian gentry , but also Count Ferdinand Ehrenreich von Rindsmaul, Baron von Neidegg.
