Wok II from Krumau

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wok II of Krumau (also Wok von Krumau ; Czech Vok z Krumlova ; † 1302 ) was a Bohemian nobleman. With him, the witigon family branch of the Lords of Krumau died out in the male line.

Life

Wok's parents were Witiko von Krumau and Sybilla, whose family name is not known. Wok was first mentioned in a document on March 19, 1272, when he appeared in Rosenberg together with his brother Heinrich under the spelling "Hanricus et Wocho domini Witigonis filii de Krummenow" as a witness to a certification by the brothers Heinrich I. von Rosenberg and Witiko von Rosenberg († 1277) gave the Hohenfurt monastery the right of patronage to the church of Raabs . Together with his brother Heinrich, Wok is documented in other documents:

  • On August 26, 1274 he was present in Strakonitz when his father "Witigo dominus de Crumnov" confirmed that five years ago he had handed over the village of Strasan to his wife Christine and her son Nikolaus from Prague.
  • On November 12, 1281, "Henricus et Wocko de Chrumnau" confirmed a document with which Heinrich I von Rosenberg donated five villages and a forest to Hohenfurt monastery and at the same time exchanged the village of Sonnberg for three other villages.
  • When Heinrich I von Rosenberg resigned to the Austrian Duke Albrecht von Habsburg Raabs on March 26, 1282 in Vienna and at the same time promised him assistance against everyone, the Witigonen, including Wok and Heinrich “de Chrumbenowe”, were excluded from the assured assistance.
  • On June 6, 1283, Wok and Heinrich “de Crumnaw” in Schlägl confirmed the gift of their deceased father, with which he had given the church of Kirchschlag and the village of Pfaffenschlag to Schlägl Abbey .
  • With a certificate issued in Český Krumlov ("Crummenowe") on September 16, 1290, Wok sold the village of Zaborsch ( Záhoří ) to the Goldenkron monastery and at the same time prescribed him the mountain of Držislaw. Wok's brother Heinrich was among the witnesses.
  • In 1291 the brothers Wok and Heinrich were among the witnesses in Rosenberg as "dominus Heinricus et donminus Wocho fratres dicti de Chrumbenaw" who confirmed that Smil von Gratzen had donated the church in Deutsch-Reichenau near Gratzen to Hohenfurt Monastery .

The last time Wok was mentioned by "Khrumaw" was on July 1, 1300, when he attested a document from Dominik von Passern ( Pasovary ), with which he repeated a donation to the Kirchschlägler Church.

Wok von Krumau was the last male descendant of the Witigon family branch of the Lords of Krumau. Their possessions initially fell as a settled fiefdom to the Bohemian King Wenceslaus II. He also transferred the Krumau Castle ("castrum Crumnaw") with the associated property with a certificate issued on April 8, 1302 in Brno to his Chamberlain Heinrich I von Rosenberg from the same witigonischen family branch of the Rosenbergs , who referred to his residence from the Rosenberg castle to the Krumlov castle moved.

Individual evidence

  1. ↑ According to Isfried H. Pichler: Urkunden Stift Schlägl , Schlägl, 2003, note 2 on p. 48 he was “later” based in Strunkowitz . However, it is noted in the note that Wok died on January 5, 1300, which would fit Wok I. von Krumau , but does not go along with the entry in the Krumau deed, according to which the Strunkowitz wok was sold on September 16, 1290 Brother Heinrich was present as a witness.
