Tigau

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Tigau was a public legal form in the Hochstift Augsburg in the early modern period .

Tigau Oberdorf

The Tigau Oberdorf consisted of Marktoberdorf , Stötten am Auerberg , Bertholdshofen, Bernbach and Thalhofen, which belonged to the Augsburg monastery. When Rettenbach am Auerberg came to the Augsburg bishopric in 1453, it was incorporated into the Tigau Oberdorf. In 1506 Jörg Rieter zu Boxberg sold Bidingen to Heinrich IV. Von Lichtenau , who added it to the Tigau Oberdorf in 1511 and had it written down on this occasion:

“It had been agreed between the faithful, loved ones, the Steurern of our Tigaus Oberdorf on one and our judges in Bidingen, who are free and unrelated to serfdom, on the other hand that the intended free people should continue to help and steer in the Tigaus Oberdorf should be like other free people who have sat in our collegiate courts; on the other hand we want to inform them of the Tigau's freedom and do and prove all of this as with other Tigau's people. But the free people are to be burdened by the Tigau's tax, now and in the future, no further higher with the tax than other free people in our and our collegiate courts who are equal to them in property; such agreements and taxes on their freedom should also be completely harmless to them and therefore not be withdrawn by us, our descendants or the Tigau for main rights, cases or other complaints that our Stifs own people owe. "

The Tigau Oberdorf exercised the right of self-taxation until 1614. In 1641, the Tigau tax was 40 Pfennig vom Heller or 22 Gulden, 51 Kreuzer and 3 hl. As compensation, Heinrich V von Knöringen promised in a contract of January 21, 1614, 16 shillings of 100 pounds sterling from a tax collected by his officials.

On July 30, 1674, the orderly Hans Erhard von Ow had the clerk Otto Truckenmiller bring the hard cash and other Tigau files, no less the Tigau chest, to Dillingen Castle on the Danube , according to a high princely order from Johann Christoph von Freyberg .

As a result of the secularization in Bavaria , Oberdorf came under the rule of the Kingdom of Bavaria from the Hochstift Augsburg in 1806 . The constitution of the Kingdom of Bavaria from 1818 did not provide for the legal form of the Tigau. On August 14, 1823, the district court of Dillingen invited the head of Tigau Oberdorf to the general meeting and submitted a Tigau maintenance bill from April 1, 1823 to January 1, 1826 to the corporation with liabilities of 1067 guilders and 18 kreuzers, whereupon the Tigaus was decided.
