The Hackenberg Castle is located in the district of Hackenberg the Upper Palatinate Municipality Bernhardswald in Bayern (Am Schlossgewende 6-7).

history

The castle was probably built in the second half of the 12th century in the clearing area of ​​the Upper Bavarian Forest . But only for the years 1440 and 1460 is Hackenberg documented as a fortress or as Hackenberg Castle on the occasion of a change of ownership . In 1275 an Ulricus Hachenbergius , son of the episcopal ministerial Heinricus de Paumgarten , appears; Ulricus acquires two farms in Kößnach from the Regensburg bishop Leo Thundorfer . In the ducal Urbar for Viztumamt Lengenfeld of 1326 is reported by a taxable farm in Hackenberg, the descendant of a knightly family of sturgeon have received as a replacement for the castle Störstein. A curia is already mentioned in the land register of 1285 , which is perhaps identical to Hackenberg Castle. In the early 14th century, foreign property of a Hachenperger is mentioned in the land register of the Viztumamt Straubing , which could correspond to the courts of Kößnach. In 1355 a Heinricus de Hakcemberg appears and in 1385 a Thoman dem Hachenberger , although the latter is uncertain whether he is still based in Hackenberg.

In 1377 an Erhart der Igel zu Hochenperg from a Regensburg bourgeois family is mentioned here ; In 1423/40 Hainrich and Ruprecht the hedgehogs of Hachenperg are mentioned here. In 1423, Hainrich and Ruprecht broker the Igel zu Hachenperg division of an inheritance between two Paulsdorfer lines. The hedgehogs must have been owned by Hackenberg back then. They were replaced by a Hans Sauder , who sold the Veste Hackenberg, including the Vogteigericht and all the pertinence, to Sebastian Bayerstorfer as early as 1440 . The mention of a Vogteigericht suggests that Hackenberg was originally under ecclesiastical manorial rule. In 1460 Hackenberg Castle was sold to an Albert Präckendorfer zu Präckendorf and Siegenstein . The Präckendorfer family remained in the possession of Hackenberg until the end of the 16th century (1598). Among them, Hackenberg becomes a Hofmark . After 1560, the Präckendorfer also held the right to present the church in Lambertsneukirchen. At this time, the territory of Hackenberg is Protestant (1545-1617). In 1513 an Achaz Präckendorfer is mentioned here , in 1532 Hans Präckendorfer , Kastner and Landschreiber zu Burglengenfeld, and in 1566 Georg Hans Präckendorfer ; Georg von Präckendorf died on December 8, 1591 without leaving a male heir.

In 1601 the property was divided among the heirs of the Präckendorf family; these are Hans Thoma von and zu Prackendorf on Schönau , Hans Nothaft on Wernberg and Bernhardswald , Joachim Poysel on Geirzeller and Roßhäupten as the husband of Luzia von Präckendorf , Hans Wallrab von Hauzendorf zu Wolfersdorf . 1618 married Hans Ludwig von Eyb to Runding and Wolfersdorf the Afra Wallrab , daughter of Hans Wallrab, and inherits Hackenberg and Wolfersdorf. In 1625 Hans Griesmayr von Inkoven bought the Hackenberg estate for 12,000 guilders. On September 29, 1628, Ludwig von Eyb († 1635) bought Hackenberg back. After that, the owners change frequently.

In May 1632, during the Thirty Years' War , Hackenberg, along with other neighboring towns, was plundered by imperial Croats. In 1636 Eva Fischer , widowed Griesmayr, asked to hand over the Hackenberg estate to her after its late owner, Ludwig von Eyb, owed her considerable debts. In 1641 the electoral brewery manager Christoph Fischer zu Göttersdorf is the owner of the castle. On October 30, 1652, captain Christian Weber bought the Hackenberg estate for 5000 guilders at the state parliament in Neuburg . On January 3, 1660 ("by purchase on the Gant ") the Neumarkt mayor Johann Heinrich Griesmayer acquires the Hackenberg estate. In 1680, Hannß Christoff Guralt and his daughter Anna Cäcilia quarrel as heirs of the late Hans Thomas von Päckendorf († September 16, 1669) with the fishermen's heirs over Hackenberg. On December 10, 1680 Anna Cäcilia Guralt , b. Präckendorf († 1689), the Hackenberger rule. On February 22, 1689, her daughter Isabella von Guralt (together with her sister Anna) succeeded her.

Around 1720 there was a fire in Hackenberg Castle; the reconstruction lasted until 1723.

In 1721 Hans von Lueger , Bavarian councilor in Straubing, inherits the Hackenberg rule from his mother Anna Susanna Luegerin, née Guraltin von Hackenberg . In 1731 Franz Wilhelm Freiherr von Sickenhausen bought the Hackenberg Castle from his cousin Hans von Lueger . He is succeeded by Georg Ignaz Freiherr von Sickenhausen . In 1772 Johann Wilhelm Freiherr von der Horst succeeded Freiherr von Sickenhausen. In 1780, the nieces of Baron Horst, the two barons from Höfen , became the owners of Hackenberg. Baron Franz von Asch zu Hauzendorf acts as court administrator, since women could not act as court judges at that time. In 1783 Friedrich Carl Freiherr von Dallwig , Palatinate Chamberlain and Colonel, received the Hackenberg castle property by marrying the Baroness von Höfen . After the death of her husband, the widowed Baroness von Dallwig managed the property. In 1830, Baron von Schwerin zu Hauzendorf bought the Hackenberg property.

In 1840 Hackenberg came into the possession of the collegiate monastery at the old chapel . After 1840, Hackenberg is sold to the postman Wittmann von Neunburg vorm Wald , who then smashes the castle estate including the brewery. The castle and some of the grounds are bought by the mercenary Jakob Oberberger von Appendorf. The 500-year history of the Hackenberg aristocratic seat ends with the conversion into a bourgeois residence.

Until 1811, Hackenberg belonged to the Burglengenfeld district court . With the resolution of February 20, 1811, the rural community of Hackenberg is formed and subordinated to the newly established Regenstauf district court ; A second class patrimonial court is established in Hackenberg . In 1867 the community of Hackenberg was assigned to the district court of Nittenau and again in 1880 to the district court of Regenstauf. On July 1, 1972, the municipality of Hackenberg was dissolved by the Bavarian regional reform and incorporated into the municipality of Bernhardswald in the Regensburg district.

Hackenberg Castle today

Today's castle on the western edge of the village of Hackenberg goes back to a small castle. The facility was once protected in the north and west by a slope that sloped towards the Zünchmühlbach, in the south and east a ditch is said to have secured the facility at the beginning of the 20th century. The facility consists of three buildings that are grouped around a small inner courtyard. The building located there today has a stepped gable. In the building, humpback blocks dating back to Romanesque times are said to be built.

A castle chapel dedicated to St. The cross used to stand to the east in the courtyard, possibly from the 18th century.
