history

Grafschaft Neuburg the castles Neuburg and Wernstein ( Vischer , 1674).
Julius II of Salm-Neuburg (1600–1654)
Wolfgang von Salm-Neuburg († 1555), Prince-Bishop of Passau

The Salm-Neuburg line goes back to the imperial general Niklas Graf Salm (1459–1530) from the Luxembourg line of the House of Salm , who received the county of Neuburg am Inn as an imperial fief in 1529 due to his services to successfully warding off the first Turkish siege of Vienna and so on became the ruling Count Nicholas I of Salm-Neuburg. He was the younger son of Johann IV. Count zu Salm, Baron von Viviers (1431–1485) and his wife Margarete von Sierck (1437–1520).

After the death of Count Niklas Salm in 1530, he was succeeded by his older son Nikolaus II († 1550) as owner of the County of Neuburg, while his younger son Wolfgang († 1555) became Prince-Bishop of Passau in 1540 . Count Nikolaus II had the Neuburg Castle redesigned in the Renaissance style. After his death, he was followed by his son Nicholas III. († 1580) as owner of Neuburg am Inn. In 1563 he introduced the Reformation there. After his death, the county passed to his brother Julius I († 1595), then to his son Weichard († 1617), and finally to his son Julius II († 1654). In contrast to the neighboring imperial county of Ortenburg , the county of Neuburg could not maintain the Lutheran faith, as it was a Habsburg fief. After the increased re-Catholicization in Austria from 1620, the Reformation was also reversed in Neuburg. Julius II was not only the owner of Neuburg, but also the governor of Moravia, and in 1637 he was awarded the bohemian count. After his death, the county of Neuburg passed to his brother Karl I († 1662), who sold it to Georg Ludwig von Sinzendorf for 400,000 guilders in 1654 , although this trade was not confirmed by the emperor until 1662. As a result, the members of the Neuburg branch of the Salm family lived mainly in Austria. The Salm-Neuburg branch went out in 1784 with Count Karl Vincenz in the male line and in 1845 with Maria Antonia (married Countess Czernin von und zu Chudenitz ) also in the female line.
