history

The Albersdorfers are mentioned here in 1321 . After that, the estate passed to the Schlammersdorfer . In 1334 Friedrich von Schlammersdorf , son of Berthold von Schlammersdorf auf Tagmanns , is mentioned as a witness during a purchase of goods in Michelfeld . This is still mentioned here as 1350; then the Tagmanns came to the Speinshart Monastery and in 1372 back to the Albersdorfers via the Watzmannsdorfer .

1480 Ulrich Albers villages on Tagmanns of Pfalzgraf Otto II. With two Burghuten to Treinreuth (now a district of Kirchenthumbach), goods in Zirkendorf and Wolframshof (now a district of Kastl (in Kemnath) ) and Eschenbach (bought by Hans usually villages ) invested. In 1494 the castle hat of Thurndorf and that of Wolfframs were added to the fiefs mentioned by Duke Phillipp the Sincere . In 1501 Ulrich von Albersdorfer was rent master in the Bavarian Oberland and caretaker in Neuburg an der Donau . In 1510 Ulrich von Albersdorfer zu Tagmanns was appointed by the Augsburg bishop Heinrich IV von Lichtenau as the fiefdom of the Reichenbach monastery . Ulrich von Albersdorfer was married to Ottilie von Harbach ; the couple had two sons, of whom Anton was Canon of Freising († 1550) and Sigmund Pfleger of Biberach. After their father's death († 1520), the two brothers Sigmund and Anton sold the Tagmanns farm to Hans den Pappenberger von Frankenohe († around 1538) in 1525 . At that time, Tagmanns Castle had a large courtyard with two barns, two cowsheds, a sheepfold, a pigsty and an oven, as well as a twelve-meter-deep well that still supplies water today. Hans der Pappenberger also owned the lead smelter in Röthenbach, the castle and the hammer there. His children Friedrich , Christoph and Dorothea sold these properties through their guardians. Christoph Pappenberger zu Tagmanns becomes a judge at Schnaittenbach in 1566 , he was married to Margareta von Brand . After the early death of her husband († 1570), she married Wilhelm Groß von Trockau zu Trockau in 1577 . After his death, the "noble estate" went to his son Hans Lorenz in 1594 . In 1609 Hans Ernst von Mengersreuth bought it .

Hans Ernst von Mengersreuth was a Landsasse at Burggrub, Kirchenthumbach and Tagmanns; until the Counter Reformation he resisted attempts at recatholicization and was expelled from the country. He went first to the neighboring Bavarian territory and then to Swedish military service. He tried to hand over his possessions into "loyal hands", which was also approved by the electoral government of Amberg on May 20, 1629; Due to his death, however, the intended assignment became obsolete and his property was confiscated as there were no heirs capable of feuding and in 1651 left as a fief to the former field marshal and mayor of Neumarkt Georg Druckmüller .

In 1650, Amalie Rosina von Gleißenthal is owned by the Tagmanns. She pays homage in 1652 through her son Jobst Friedrich , who used the estate until 1666. For a while the Tagmanns, Leutzenhof and Stegenthumbach were united. Thumbach's market chamber account from 1678 named Adam Zedwitz from Loitzenhof as the owner of Tagmanns at the same time. In 1665 a Konrad König was granted the freedom of the citizens of the country . Hieronymus Christoph von Pöllnitz , who was married to Katharina Stör von Störnstein in his first marriage and to Katharina Anna von Kürpen in his second marriage , bought it from him in 1690 . His son Friedrich von Pöllnitz († 1723) inherited the paternal estate back to his sons Marquard , who died unmarried in 1742, and to Wilhelm Georg Ernst , bailiff of Stadtsteinach in 1741 . The two brothers dismantled and sold the Tagmanns mess. This Baron von Pöllnitz sold the estate to Josef Ringer von Wolfsflegel in 1822 . He divided it into two properties and gave it to his two daughters. One of them married Josef Albersdorfer from Ernstfeld and the other with Ulrich Metzner from Pappenberg , the latter became the owner of the castle. His son Ignaz Metzner took over the property in 1861 and married Barbara Trummer from Wolframs. Since her husband died at the age of 47, the widow had to run the estate alone with her three children until the property was passed on to one of the three daughters in 1899. One of them married the farmer's son Johann König from Asbach in 1906 . The daughter Barbara König married Michael Schleicher in 1948 and the couple ran the farm until 1972, when they built an emigrant farm not far from Tagmanns, which is still managed today. Michael Schleicher then sold the castle building together with the agricultural buildings to a Koller from Grafenwöhr , who sold it on to the Seemann family from Kemnath in 2001 .

Current condition

The castle building is a two-storey eaves-standing pitched roof building with profiled window frames. The building has walls up to 1.6 m thick and massive vaulted cellars. In 1825 the castle was demolished "for a few shoes" and converted into a property for farming purposes; the formerly existing moat has disappeared, as has the bridge and the two towers protecting the property. The property now includes a barn, machine halls and stables as well as a courtyard area of ​​4000 square meters. A ring road runs around the area. The castle, originally from the 16th century, is now the residential building within this farm. The inside of the castle was almost completely rebuilt in 1910, but afterwards it was heavily damaged by the previous owner (all doors were removed and the floors were badly damaged). The current owners are trying to do a proper renovation.
