history

Hohenrod Castle
Diersburg ruins

Ancestral castle of the family was Hohenrode (also called Brigittenschloss , built in the middle of the 11th century, ruin after 1524) near Sasbachwalden . From the Ortenau the family first spread to Alsace . The first verifiable family member is Burcard von Hohenrod , documented April 12, 1197. The progenitor of the only remaining main line of Renchen (later von Diersburg , after the rule Diersburg acquired in 1455 ) is the squire Dietrich the Elder Roder, documented in 1381.

In 1474 the family was one of the founders of the Swabian Imperial Knighthood , Canton of Ortenau.

During the 18th century the Barons Roeder von Diersburg belonged to the imperial knighthood in the knightly canton Neckar , district Ortenau, of the Swabian knightly circle , because of the rule Diersburg . 1802 were Philipp Ferdinand, Philipp Friedrich Karl Ludwig August, Georg, Ludwig and Egenolf Christian Roeder von Diersburg, Lords of Diersburg and Reichenbach. On May 9, 1742, members of the family were enrolled in the knightly district of Lower Alsace , after the family had already resided there in the year 1680 and belonged to the knighthood with their goods. The French recognition of the baronage took place on August 6, 1773 in Compiègne, the grand-ducal Baden confirmation of the use of the title of baron (for the entire family) on April 24, 1911 in Karlsruhe.

The progenitor of the lines that flourished around 1865 is Georg VI. (1556-1601). He was a German knight, left this order in 1587, converted to the Lutheran denomination and married Ursula, née von Fegersheim. His sons Franz Sebastian and Georg Friedrich donated the lines:

  1. Older line, which belongs to the Catholic denomination, whose boss around 1865 was Karl Freiherr Roeder von Diersburg (* 1789), senior of the family.
  2. Younger Line, Evangelical Denomination,
    1. Younger line, older branch, which again divided into two branches, whose bosses were Wilhelm Freiherr Roeder von Diersburg (* 1809), Braunschweig lieutenant colonel a. D., and Philipp Freiherr Roeder von Diersburg (1801–1864), lieutenant general from Baden.
    2. Younger line, Younger branch: The boss was Karl Ludwig Ferdinand Freiherr Roeder von Diersburg (* 1810), Baden state stable master, in 1865.

The natural son of Friedrich Adolf Freiherr Roeder von Diersburg (1714–1787), 16th senior of the family and fiefdom holder of the Diersburg lordship in Baden, former Lieutenant Colonel of Hesse-Darmstadt from the connection with Eleonore Christine Reinheimer , Friedrich Röder (1751–1831) , Grand Ducal Hessian captain, founded a also Protestant Hessian family in 1751, which uses both the name Baron Roeder von Diersburg and the coat of arms of the noble family Roeder von Diersburg . From his marriage to Anna Regine Brodecker (1753-1825) three sons and one daughter were born. Two sons, Ernst Röder , Grand Ducal Hessian Colonel and Commander of the 3rd Infantry Regiment, and Ludwig Röder, Grand Ducal Hessian Lieutenant Colonel in the 2nd Infantry Regiment and their nephew Karl Christian Röder , Grand Ducal Hessian Lieutenant in the 3rd Infantry Regiment, received their military positions on September 21 1839 and on April 1, 1853 the grand ducal Hessian recognition of title and name.

Gut Diersburg (Philippshof) in Baden is still run by the family as a winery today.

The manor Völkershausen in Hesse came to the Barons Roeder von Diersburg in the 20th century through an inheritance from the von und zu Gilsa family . The local Gut Marienhof (Völkershausen) is a separate farm that also belongs to the family.
