history

Members of the noble family sturgeon are first mentioned in the first half of the 12th century. During the transfer of two mansen at Traitsching by Adelaide of Wartberg 1138 to the convent Ensdorf is Graf Gebhard III. von Sulzbach , who wrongly appropriated the property. Otto V. von Wittelsbach transferred the bailiwick to Count Gebhard in 1144. Witness to this agreement is u. a. also a Fridrich Stör . In a document of the Kastl monastery from 1170 (sometimes also dated to 1230) Rupertus Stoere appears in a row of witnesses, which is led by the Reich ministerial Vlricus de Chunigstein . Regarding Rupertus Stör it says in 1170 in the Chancellor rhyme chronicle:

" Remember me from
the Störnstein, the Stör are
ready for the tournament
With knightly work "

- Quoted from Otto Titan von Hefner and Gustav Adelbert Seyler, 1856, p. 24.

A Chunz Stör is mentioned as a participant in the 10th tournament in Zurich from 1165, Rudolph Stohr is mentioned at the 15th tournament in Regensburg in 1284 , Haintz Stör is involved in the 16th tournament in Schweinfurt in 1296, Marquard and Hanns Stör in 1412 are at the 25th tournament in Regensburg stated, in 1484 Friderich Stör was listed in the Störnsteyn at the 32nd tournament in Ingolstadt. These tournaments are mentioned in Georg Rüxner's tournament book , the first tournament being historically controversial.

Around 1225, an Ulrich Storro and his brother Heinrich appear as witnesses in an alliance agreement between Count Diepold II. Von Leuchtenberg and Count Heinrich von Ortenburg . Ulrich Stör acquired the pledge for 20 pounds via Neustadt an der Waldnaab , which Heinrich II. Von Altendorf had received through his marriage to one of the heirlooms of Count Gebhard von Sulzbach . However, on March 8, 1232, the pledge was pledged to the Ortenburgers , namely to Heinrich I von Ortenburg , and then no longer released. This pledge took place on the condition that Ulrich Stör was reimbursed his 20 pounds. Rupert Stör is a documentary witness . Ulrich and Rupert Stör appear several times as witnesses for the Ortenburgers in 1225, 1233, 1237 and 1238.

According to the Salbuch of Duke Ludwig der Strenge from 1270, he bought the properties belonging to the Störnstein Castle ( castrum Stör ) from Ulrich Stoer . The reason for the sale is unknown; the sturgeon remain the owners of scattered goods in the Upper Palatinate. For a few decades, the sturgeon from Störnstein owned the place Zogenreuth (today a district of Auerbach in the Upper Palatinate ), from where they manage the property of the Bamberg bishops in the Upper Palatinate. Relations between the Stör and the diocese are also given by Conrad Stöhr zum Störnstein , who is mentioned in 1368 and 1384 as Canon of Bamberg and as pastor of St. Laurentie in Nuremberg . In addition, members of the Stör in the 14th century often appear as witnesses for the Bamberg bishop, for example on March 10, 1354, when Walbram Stör presented the bishop of Bamberg Leopold III. of Bebenburg a commitment issues for the pledge of a part of Veldenstein or on May 20, 1355 Fricz Stor the Jueng the same bishop confirmed that a castle estate to Triebenreut (today part of Stadtsteinach ) was triggered again. Georg Storn von Storenstein received in 1518 from Bishop Georg III. Schenk von Limpurg awarded the seat of Zogenreuth. Members of this knight family also administered the Bamberg office of Veldenstein - Neuhaus for several years . In this context, the sturgeon probably received Zogenreuth as a fiefdom from Bamberg . The customs on the Rotenbrücke, the customs of Auerbach and Michelfeld were also leased to them. The time of the sturgeon in Zogenreuth ended around 1550, from 1550 to around 1573 Georg von Gravenreuth is the owner of Zogenreuth.
