The Wisspeck (also known as Wisspec , Wißpach , Wissbach , Wiespeck , Wiesbeck , Wiespekh or Wiespach ) are an old Salzburg noble family ( ministeriales minores of the Salzburg Church). They had their headquarters, the Wiesbachhof, east of Ulrichshögl and south of Ainring . They built the later Wiespach Castle and the Winkl Castle near Salzburg . They had their hereditary funeral in the church in Oberalm ; the oldest tombstone there from 1341 is that of Jans von Wispeck and his wife Agnes von Höhenrain. In Salzburg they are likely to have acquired the Wyspeckenhof (proven here in 1335), as they had to be resident in the city as holders of court offices. On a crest in Salzburg Gablerbräu are Wisspachs mentioned with an emblem of the 1322, but there are earlier mentions of members of the family of Wisspecks, these supposedly first written reference appears to be doubtful. The Wiestal near Salzburg is said to have got its name from the Wisspecken, since -peck means a stream.

Members of the Wispeck family

Heinricus de Wisbach appears for the first time around 1167 among the ministerials of the Salzburg monastery . This and his sons were milites in the last rank of the army shield order . A Heinrich von Wiesbach married the daughter of Gottschalk von Unzing in 1272 . Ullrich II is mentioned in 1261 as Vizedom , from 1270 to 1295 he was occasionally marshal , in 1282 he was burgrave at Tittmoning Castle ; Half of Radeck Castle was pledged to him in 1270 . His brothers were entrusted with the duties of a judge, a kitchen master and court master in Salzburg. Through these services they were able to improve their social status and by clever tactics between the Elekt Philipp von Spanheim and that of the Bavarian Duke Heinrich XIII. supported Ulrich von Seckau to rise to leading positions.

Ulrich and Hartneid von Wissbeck fought in the Battle of Ampfing in 1322 under the Salzburg nobility on the side of Prince Archbishop Friedrich III. from Leibnitz . In 1319 they are knighted. Ulrich, the parent Wispecke , is also the fiefdom holder for his brothers. After the Lords of Tann died out (1391) they became treasurers of the archbishopric. The court and hereditary offices at the court of the archbishop had been conferred on neighboring princes since the end of the 13th century. The office of treasurer belonged to the Duke of Bavaria, who in turn transferred it to Salzburg servants as a hereditary fief. As bearers of this inheritance, the Wispeck held a special position among the Salzburg nobility. B. the right to give fiefdoms oneself. The first Wispeck in the chamber master's office is the knight Wilhelm Wispeck, who received his office from Duke Ludwig VII the Bearded on January 22, 1421. Wilhelm died on June 13, 1428, he was succeeded by his brother Achaz in the office of chamber master. This was also the nurse to Raschenberg-Teisendorf . His son of the same name received the festivals and care Tittmoning in 1462 and was governor of Salzburg under Archbishop Bernhard von Rohr from 1474 to 1476.

After his death († October 27, 1481) he was followed by his son Georg in the office of chamber master. In 1487 he was named as a knight in the Regensburg tournament register. This Georg can be considered the most important member of the family. He moved the family seat of this noble family in 1507 from the Archdiocese of Salzburg to Velburg in Bavaria († 1518). He also succeeded in receiving a fiefdom letter from Emperor Maximilian I , which effectively granted him sovereignty in his territory. The Wisbons continued to retain their fiefs and offices in Salzburg.

His son Hans Adam Wiesbeck († 1561), married to Anna Erlbäck, continued the expansion of the Velburg rule by building a farm in Hollerstetten in 1523 , and in 1535–1541 property in Rammersberg , Reckenhofen , Batzhausen , Breitental near Parsberg , Krappenhofen , Mantlach, Pathal, Ronsolden, Vogelbrunn (all located near Velburg). Emperor Ferdinand I granted him freedom from red wax in 1559 . He held important positions throughout his life: in 1521 he was a nurse at Donaustauf , 1543 at Stadtamhof , in 1546 as a district judge in Sulzbach , in 1552 as a nurse at Helfenberg and in 1556 as a nurse at Laaber . Hans Adam also demonstrated his independence in relation to Pfalz-Neuburg through his religious policy: after briefly converting to the Reformation in 1545 , he returned to Catholic teaching in the Schmalkaldic War after the occupation of Neuburg by the imperial troops. When Ottheinrich wanted to introduce the Reformation after the Passau Treaty in 1552 , Hans Adam offered resistance and remained Catholic with his country.

He was followed by his son Georg Hektor (master chamberlain of the Salzburg bishopric , † 1574), who, like his ancestors, continued to expand the Velburg rule. He acquired goods and rights in Eichenhofen (today part of Seubersdorf in the Upper Palatinate ), Freudenricht, Regenfußmühle and Vogelbrunn. Georg Hektor received from Emperor Ferdinand I the freedom to appear only before the Emperor and the Imperial Court of Justice; exceptions were the feudal cases from the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg . He also opposed the introduction of the Reformation, perhaps one reason that Velburg quickly became a Catholic during the Counter Reformation . On March 12, 1561 he was enfeoffed with the Salzburg property of his family and on June 12, 1561 with the office of master of the hereditary chamber. He was married to Klara von Freiberg († August 25, 1574), the couple had no children. The last descendant of the Wispecken, Georg Hektor, died of the plague on September 30, 1574 on the Velburg. The town clerk of Velburg, Johann Baptist Lehner, commented: “At that time God punished the unbelieving Velburg with the plague because of the soul poison of many heresies, so that not only the owner of this rule and his wife Clara, but so many residents in the Kingdom of the dead came ”.

After the death of Georg Hektor, Velburg was immediately occupied by the Palatinate-Neuburgian nurse in Hemau , Johann Voit. From then on, Velburg was considered to be an ordinary country estate of Pfalz-Neuburg. The keeper's seat was moved from the castle to the city and the castle was left to decay.

Georg Hector's universal heir, however, was his sister Anna, who had been married to Hans Heinrich Nothaft von Wernberg since 1565 . At the time of the inheritance, this caretaker was in Vilshofen , then later (from January 1, 1583) Vice-Cathedral in Landshut . He litigated for the rule of Velburg before the Imperial Court of Justice, but was settled in 1584 with 80,000 guilders. In Salzburg Anna Nothaft was enfeoffed with her brother's property, but her husband was not granted the office of chamber master. Hans Heinrich Nothaft acquired the Hofmark Triebenbach in 1586 . Their successor was their only son, Georg Stephan Nothaft von Wernberg, Aholming, Wackerstein, Edling, Winkl and Triebenbach in 1595. In 1604 he is Salzburg Chamberlain and Councilor. He died in 1608, leaving behind two underage children, Burkhard, who soon died, and their daughter Anna. This Anna married Alphons Freiherrn von Lamberg on May 23, 1621, she died childless around 1634. Alphons received all of the Wispecken fiefdoms from Salzburg. After a short period of mourning he married Maria Kern. She had already been married in 1623 to the district judge and administrator of the Werfen Propstei Joseph Niggl († 1627), then in 1628 to Christoph Altenstrasser († 1632), on July 1, 1632 she married the court vice chancellor Dr. Johannes Kitzmägel († January 23, 1634). After her marriage to Alphons von Lamberg († 1653) she married Ludwig Graf von Spaur († 1661). She then lived as Wittib in Salzburg and appears to have died here on May 5, 1678. On March 6, 1653, Maria Freiin von Lamberg sold the former Wispeck property to the keeper of Werfen, Franz Dücker von Haslau and Urstain. The fiefs were withdrawn in 1653 by Archbishop Paris Lodron and given to the cathedral chapter for an anniversary foundation .

Art-historical memories of the Wispecks

Altar of the cemetery church St. Anna von Velburg

The high altar of the cemetery church St. Anna zu Velburg originally comes from the castle chapel and is likely to have come from there to the Anna chapel at the end of the 16th century. He points to the wings four knights saints and the coat of arms of Wiespecks and intermarried with them Nothaffts .

A red marble tombstone in the parish church of St. Johann Baptist (Velburg) commemorates the knight Jörg Wispeck zu Velburg and Wernberg, treasurer of the Archbishopric of Salzburg and captain of the Palatinate in the Landshut War of Succession († 1518).

Further epitaphs of the family can be found in the parish church of Oberalm.
