history

In 1337 a knight Gebhard der Engelsperger appears , who seals Rudolf the Engelperger and Heinrich von Puchberg . In 1349 a Konrad Puchberger is mentioned by the engeleinsperg . A Heinrich von Tobl is also mentioned here. In 1360 Seitz von Puchberg and from 1364 Seifried von Puchberg on the Engelsberg are attested. The Burgstall was a fiefdom of the Niederaltaich Monastery , so that Abbot Altmann was able to enfeoff the Counts of Hals with it from 1367 . The Halser employed keepers at the castle. The Landgraves of Leuchtenberg , succeeding the Counts of Hals, sold the leasable castle to Count Etzel zu Ortenburg in 1416 . After several succession of possessions within the Ortenburger family , the Castel Sant'Angelo came to her husband Wolfgang von Walsee , Supreme Marshal of Austria and Supreme Truchsess of Styria, via the heiress Veronika ; In 1463 he left the property to Hartmann von Traun . After several disputes, Engelsberg was sold to Lukas Regnolt in 1471, who had already acquired Iggenstein . Having got into economic difficulties, he sold the castle and the Hofmark to Sigmund Ecker zu Oberpöring . In 1493 ownership passed to Degenhard Watzmannsdorfer and his mother Sabina Pfaffinger. On the way to marriage, Engelsberg came across Christoph Rhainer, who had married Degenhard's daughter, Sabine. Thereafter Engelsberg was owned by Gregors Herr zum Losenstein , from whose daughter Elisabeth it passed to her husband Gottgard von Scherffenberg zu Ortt im Traunsee and Waldbach. In 1558 Engelsberg was sold to Ottheinrich Freiherr von Schwarzenberg . On December 21, 1559 he was enfeoffed by the Niederaltaich monastery.

After several changes of ownership, Duke Maximilian bought the castle in 1603 and placed it under the care court of winemakers. In 1674 the castle was captured by Johann von Werth during the Thirty Years' War and badly damaged. In the course of the Austrian War of Succession , the "Engelsberg" castle was devastated by Pandurs , referred to as a ruin in the 19th century and only called "Dobl Castle" or "Tobl" over the years.

Only the two-storey Romanesque castle chapel attached to the shield wall and the remains of the shield and cage wall remain from the former castle complex . At the point of the earlier access in the northwest, a ditch can also be seen .

Today the site is a landmark building D-2-71-153-31 "Castle ruins, remains of the shield and fence wall, beginning of the 13th century", as well as a ground monument D-2-7244-0115 "Underground medieval and modern findings in the area the castle ruins Dobl with castle chapel and presumably section moat ”recorded by the Bavarian State Office for Monument Preservation . The monument castle chapel bears the designation D-2-71-153-32 “Castle and double chapel for the 14 helpers in need, small Romanesque saddle roof building with shifted choir, 13th century core; with equipment ”.
