Seebach (noble family)
The von Seebach family ( Sebach, Seobach, Sebechi, Sobechi, Subach ) is an old, widespread Thuringian noble family, named after the town of Seebach in Thuringia . Later some representatives were raised to the baron and count status.
history
The family is probably mentioned with Ado von Seebach already at the time of Charlemagne . A Werner von Seebach to 1030. Count Ludwig the Bearded , the ancestor of the Thuringian Landgrave of the family of Ludowinger , have come to Thuringia. In 1114 a Bebo von Seebach and on July 23, 1123 the Lords of Sebeche are mentioned. The family first appears in a document on July 5, 1206 with Ekkehardus de Sebeke , then in 1225 with Albert von Sobech and 1227/1231/1233 with Dietrich von Subach . The line of trunks does not begin until 1322 with the Count of Schwarzburg councilor Werner von Seebach . A Lutz von Seebach is said to have built the headquarters near Langensalza . Ernst von Seebach was provost of Neumünster Abbey in Würzburg from 1326 to 1336/37 . Thilo von Seebach in 1404 was court master at the court of the Counts of Schwarzburg .
coat of arms
Three (2: 1) red sea leaves on a silver shield. On the helmet with red and silver blankets a red-clad, bearded man's torso with a pointed, silver-tipped red cap. The coat of arms is immortalized in the church window in the churches of Kammerforst and Kleinfahner .
The Duchy of Saxony-Wittenberg carried the same coat of arms, with a slightly different crest (clothing and hat red and white striped), which it took over from the Counts of Engern and Brehna, who had the same coat of arms . The Wittenberg suburb of Seegrehna, mentioned as Grodisti in 1004 , indicates this relationship.
