Seyfried (Siegfried) von Breuner (* 1538 ; † June 27, 1594 in Vienna ) was an Austrian nobleman from the Breuner family and a Lower Austrian civil servant .

Life

Seyfried Breuner, Baron von Stübing , Fladnitz and Rabenstein , was the first son of the Hofkammerpräsident Philipp Freiherr von Breuner and treasurer of the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II (HRR) . In 1569 he became imperial councilor and member of the regiment council and on November 7, 1587 governor of Lower Austria. Due to illness, he resigned this office in 1591 and died on June 27, 1594 in Vienna. Like his ancestors, he is buried in the Schottenkirche in Vienna.

Baron Seyfried Breuner married Elisabeth Freiin von Eitzing (Eytzing) in 1566, a sister of Baron Christoph von Eyczing with whom he had five sons and two daughters. Seyfried Christoph (1569–1651) succeeded his father as a politician.

Like his father Philip, he received the Staatz rule in 1568 from Emperor Maximilian II as a pledge. From Emperor Rudolf II he received the Altprerau castle with the estate, the sheep farm at Rothensee, ponds and Gülten von Neusiedl (is Kottingneusiedl ?) And Ehrendorf (probably Ernsdorf, KG von Staatz). In 1586 he bought the castle and estate of St. Margarethen am Moos from his brother-in-law Wenzel von Niemitz.
