Tierberg (noble family)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coat of arms of the Lords of Tierberg

The lords of Tierberg ( Thierberg ) were a noble family who owned the towns of Lautlingen , Margrethausen and Hossingen , and at times also Meßstetten , Tieringen and Winzeln (Oberhausen), a small dominion on the Swabian Alb .

The Tierberg at Tierberg Castle , which were resident in the Hohenlohe community of Braunsbach, are not related or have the same coat of arms .

history

The creation of a reliable genealogy is difficult due to the large number of identical first names . In 1884, for example, the address for merchant, knitter and farmer Conrad Maier was: "Conrad Maier zum Ochsen" or "Comazo" for short. In the past it was customary in the local area to add the nearest castle or inn as an addition to the name. With this promising approach, people can be better assigned. It should be noted that the name suffix changes when you move. The residents of the Wildentierberg called themselves from 1313 Lords von Tierberg von der Wildentierberg , after which the line remaining on the family castle was called Tierberg von der Altentierberg. This line died out in 1480. Heirs of the Tierberg Haiterbach line in Meßstetten were also those of the Wildentierberg.

von Tierberg without name additions

Bartholomäus Pirzschelin reports in the Urbar von Egesheim from 1551 about a provost Wolfrad von Tierberg (1252 to 1278) in the Beuron monastery . Two brothers of the provost Wolfrad von Tierberg are also conventuals and work as pastors in foreign parishes. These were Konrad von Tierberg, pastor in Balingen , rector of the church in Gammertingen auf dem Berge and Eberhard von Tierberg, rector of the church in Aggenhausen . Arnold von Tierberg is the owner of the later monastery courtyard in Hossingen with 37 J arable land and 10.5 mm meadows. In 1556 there was a legal dispute over the fees of the court to the hermitage.

Nicknamed Haiterbach

Heinrich and Burkard made property deals in Meßstetten in 1311 . Heinrich von Tierberg is mentioned by Haiterbach ; since Julius Kindler von Knobloch's Upper Baden gender book , the place Haiterbach (near Nagold) is assumed to be eponymous. After the resignation of Heinrich von Tierberg and his clergy in 1354, the church of St Lamprecht in Meßstetten formed a small canon monastery. Local researcher Krauss suspected that knight Heinrich von Tierberg called Haiterbach had sold his property in Haiterbach and acquired his new rule, the center of which was Meßstetten. In addition to Tieringen , Meßstetten , Hossingen and the Vogtrecht von Nusplingen , Winzeln was also part of it. The St. Lamprecht Church in Meßstetten is supported by Heinrich and Burkhard von Tierberg. In 1360 the lord of the castle donated a year for himself, his ancestors and descendants in the church in Meßstetten (St. Lamprecht, largely renovated after the earthquake damage in 1911), where his mother, his wife and three sisters are buried. In 2016, graves were found and documented in the lamprechtskiche church during the installation of a warm air heating system. Research work was carried out by the city of Meßstetten at the University of Tübingen and printed in book form. The place of residence was Meßstetten Castle on the Schloßberg, in Hossingen , Nusplingen and Tieringen there were other castles.

Castles

Altentierberg in Lautlingen and Wildentierberg in Margrethausen were built by the Lords of Tierberg. Neuentierberg , however, was taken over by the Lords of Bubenhofen. In Meßstetten , Hossingen Tieringen and Winzeln there were other castles in their possession. Today only small remains of ruins remain. Konrad Albert Koch succeeded in an artistic reconstruction. A team led by Franz Josef Häring reconstructed the Meßstetter castles (residential tower Burgschule, Wasserburg Oberdigisheim, Burg Hossingen and residential tower Tieringen) with CAD systems.

Without title of nobility

Hans Tierberger was an illegitimate son of Melchior von Tierberg. Hans Tierberger began to study in Freiburg in 1494 and then moved to Tübingen, where he obtained his master's degree in 1500. During the Reformation, the Ebingen pastor, Magister Johann Tierberger, initially refused to give up his parish, which his half-brother Hans Konrad von Tierberg, the patronage holder of the Ebingen Martinskirche, had given him. In the middle of the 16th century, the noble branch of the von Tierberg family died out in the male line.

Family coat of arms

In the coat of arms, the Lords of Tierberg had a right-facing golden doe on a green Dreiberg on a blue background. This coat of arms was adopted by the municipality in 1930, reduced by helmet covers and crest. Due to a reversed representation in Siebmacher's book of arms , the doe in Lautlingen's municipal coat of arms now looks heraldically to the left. For reasons of the appearance of Siebmacher this occurs often in his heraldic books. In 1949 Lautlingen's municipal coat of arms was confirmed. The Dreiberg could represent the three castles in Margrethausen, Hossingen and Lautlingen. Other experts see similarities with Burkard von Weckenstein the Staufer Reich ministerial and founder of the Wald monastery . The heraldic animals of the Tierberger can be found in all three coats of arms of the communities. A hind in Lautlingen, a stag in Margrethausen and a stag calf in Hossingen.

Collegiate Church of the Lords of Tierberg

The St. Lamprechts church in Meßstetten was first mentioned in 1275. In 1360 the Haiterbach line donated the Tierbergers a year in the church of St. Lamprecht in Meßstetten, in whose crypt several Tierbergers are buried. In the 14th century three more altars, each with a chaplain, were donated. The parish was also endowed with the patronage rights of Meßstetten and Frohnstetten and formed a small canon monastery with its four clergy in 1354. The former Meßstetter Conrector and local historian Hermann Krauss assumed that the rule of center in the immediate vicinity of the grave countershaft ( 48 ° 10 '50.91 "  N , 8 ° 57' 43.61"  O ) is to be sought.

Monasteries

The Margrethausen monastery was founded as a Franciscan monastery in 1338 by the local lord Konrad von Tierberg . Conrad von Tierberg equipped the hermitage with property and goods on site, took it under his protection and shield and freed it from all services. Soon afterwards the hermitage was able to expand its property considerably by purchasing a series of Meßstetten farms from the Haiterbach line at Meßstetten Castle . The monastery owned five Meßstetter feudal farms, 168 Jauchert arable land and 104 Mannswahd meadows. Until the Reformation the monastery was the largest lord and feudal lord of the Meßstetter, so it had more area than the amply furnished Meßstetter collegiate church of St Lamprecht with its three altars or the chaplaincy.

Say

Shoemaker

A long time ago a shoemaker from Hossingen (Herrschaft Tierberg) was indicted by the Herrschaft court. His execution seemed inevitable. They agreed on a divine judgment in the form of a unilateral ordal. The accused shoemaker had to make a pair of shoes on the shoemaker's rock at a dizzying height above the abyss. He was not allowed to lose any of the counted material. The impeccably made shoes and the fact that he did not fall was seen in court at the time as evidence of his innocence. While the name Schuhmacherfels is entered on the official maps next to a rock needle near the Muisloch cave, according to oral tradition, the ordal is said to have taken place on the right side of the valley near the " Hossinger ladder ". Alpine Trails lead to Muislochhöhe ( 48 ° 11 '52.49 "  N , 8 ° 56' 8.23"  O ), viewpoint Schuhmacher rock ( 48 ° 11 '46.7 "  N , 8 ° 55' 54.23"  O )

"The Schimmelreiter's secret love affairs"

An old legend tells of a Schimmelreiter who secretly meets with his lover at the Weichenwang . Sometimes on stormy autumn nights at the old Burtel Castle near Hossingen, of which there are still a few remains, a white horse rider riding across the Weichenwang (Heiligenwang) should become visible. The pair of lovers is a befitting relationship between a noble knight from Tierberg and the daughter of the lord of the castle. Their places of residence are said to be the castles of Hossingen and Tierberg. In 1898, Emil Schweizer incorporated the well-known version of this legend into his article from the Balingen Mountains. A vague reference can be found in an old document. On July 14, 1327, the noble servant Kunz acquired a castle near Meßstetten from the Lords of Bubenhofen . Was the lord of the castle in Hossing in trouble and had to pledge to the rich lords of Bubenhofen? Was the gray rider Kunz von Neuentierberg and did he buy his parents' castle in Hossingen for his lover?
