Wildenwart
Wildenwart is a village in the municipality of Frasdorf im Chiemgau in Upper Bavaria .
history
Wildenwart Castle was built in the 12th century and changed hands several times. It was the seat of the Wildenwart lordship, which was endowed with high jurisdiction until 1806 . In 1771 the rule came into the possession of the Preysing family . In 1813 the lordships of Wildenwart and Hohenaschau were transformed into a royal Bavarian, Counts-Preysingian lordship court based in Prien . In 1818 the political community of Wildenwart was established. The rescission of the Preysing loan, which also took place in 1818, was challenged in court, so that the ruling court lasted until 1848. Wildenwart Castle was acquired in 1862 by Archduke Franz V of Modena-Este and his wife Adelgunde of Bavaria. It finally came into the possession of the Bavarian royal family through inheritance. After the November Revolution of 1918, the Bavarian royal family met, including Ludwig III. at Wildenwart Castle, which was to become the new home for the Wittelsbach family . During the regional reform in 1978, the previous community of Wildenwart was divided in half; the southern part with Wildenwart fell to Frasdorf, the northern part went to Prien.
coat of arms
The coat of arms is shaped by the relationship with the owners of Schloss and Hofmark Wildenwart . In the late Middle Ages, the local noble family of Wildenwart lived there. The von Schurff gentlemen deserve a special mention from the later owners. Both of their coats of arms (Wildenwarter: blue tip in gold; Schurff: "Schurfeisen" = steel for striking fire) are therefore well suited to historically founded symbols for the community.
