history

The parent company Burg Wiedersberg between Hof and Oelsnitz in the Saxon Vogtland was built in 1117. The family first appeared in a document on September 18, 1309 with the knight (miles) Eberhardus de Gegenberch . The regular family line begins with Lorenz, the son of Burkhard's Wiedersperger, who still held the castle in the 15th century, but settled in Bohemia and was married there to Magdalena von Reitzenstein for the first time, and Katharina Kawka von Rczizan for the second, with whom he fathered numerous children and thus ensured the broad ramifications of the noble family. His two sons from the connection with Katharina, Moritz and Georg founded two main lines, the Pteniner (extinct in the male line) and the Muttersdorfer .

At the beginning of the 15th century, the Lords of Pernartitz, then Nikolaus von Seeberg, owned the rulership of Wasserau with Muttersdorf. Through his marriage to Margaretha Henninger von Eberg, a descendant, Georg Wiedersperger married Wasserau with the farms and the church patronage as well as the castle and rule of Muttersdorf in the Klattau district of the Kingdom of Bohemia. Johann the Elder, who had attended the Prague Landtag in 1561, already owned the Muttersdorf estate at that time, which remained in the family until the time of the Imperial and Royal Chamberlain Johann Franz Friedrich in 1857.

Johann Wiedersperger the Younger was raised to the bohemian knighthood in 1598 with the predicate "von Wiedersperg".

In 1620 Martin Wiedersperger von Wiedersperg became master of Drachkau (Drahkov) . However, in 1623 he was punished for his participation in the class uprising with the collapse of the Drahkov rule and loss of half his fortune.

Georg's great-grandson, the kk chamberlain and Pilsen district commissioner Johann Friedrich (born June 26, 1733; † July 1, 1811), a son of Christoph Wenzel , acquired from the line of Johann Jacob († 1683) and his wife Maria Justina von Hochholdingen and Dorothea Kunasch von Machowitz, on May 5, 1760 in Vienna the herbländisch-Bohemian baron class, which in 1872 and 1881 was also granted to two members of the younger line. His first marriage since 1754 was Maria Caroline (* August 26, 1732 - May 26, 1799), daughter of Lieutenant Field Marshal Christoph Freiherrn Hinderer von Steinhausen (with rank of July 13, 1752) and Maria Anna Stieler von Roseneck, then, on January 20, 1807 in second marriage with Kunigunde Freiin von Wrede. His marriage to Maria Caroline gave birth to six children, three daughters, Walpurgis (* April 17, 1765), Johanna (* May 21, 1766) and Theresia (* April 1, 1771) as well as the sons Vinzenz Peter (* February 4, 1759 ; + December 15, 1815), Christoph Karl (* June 11, 1761) and Karl Joseph Kajetan (* August 7, 1762), of which the oldest and the youngest propagated the Muttersdorfer tribe. A son of Vinzenz, Johann (* 1799) was canon of Olomouc and abbot to St. Heinrich in Hungary.

In 1864 Hugo Wiedersperger von Wiedersperg inherited the Medleschitz estate from his mother Theresia, née von Trauttmansdorff -Weinsberg. Medleschitz was owned by the family until 1945.

According to a decree of May 23, 1921, the political state administration in Prague approved the name "Wiedersperg" instead of "Wiedersperger".

Ludwig von Leonrod's wife , Monika, née Freiin von Twickel , married Johann Freiherrn von Wiedersperg in 1948. Since 1950 the descendants from this connection have been entitled to bear the name "Freiherr von Wiedersperg-Leonrod" in memory of Ludwig von Leonrod. The family now lives in Schmiechen .
