The Zollner coat of arms

The Zollner von Halberg (also: Zollner von der Hallburg, Zollner auf der Hallburg, Zöllner) were a Frankish noble family . Her family existed from 1235 to 1640.

history

The relationships between the early Zollner von der Hallburg family are largely unknown. In 1241 a Berthold von Halleberg was mentioned, who was probably the progenitor of the Hallburg line together with his brother Friedrich and Albertus de Halleberg. In 1298, their successors adopted the name Zollner to underline the customs rights of their Hallburg castle . They became bailiffs at the castle in 1356 and held this position, with interruptions, until 1640.

The brothers Erkinger and Endres did military service for the burgrave of Nuremberg , while their brother appeared as a peace broker for the burgrave in 1376/77. In 1349 and 1355 the Zollner bought Eichfeld and Rimbach . Erkinger and Endres then changed their names to "zu Rimbach" and thus donated the Rimbach line, which was located in the town's castle .

Her sons, Conrad, Wilhelm and Stephan increased the property of their fathers. They received interest from Lülsfeld , Geiselwind , Siegmannsdorf, Gerolzhofen , Zeilitzheim and Schalckfeld. They held the bailiwick offices in Gaibach , Obervolkach and Volkach and were the masters of Stollberg Castle . Their religiosity was reflected in several foundations. Conrad donated the Charity Mariae Virginis extra muros for the Michaelskapelle in Volkach. Another brother, Friedrich Czolner von Hallburg, was canon in Bamberg.

Her sons, Stephan and Peter, died early, leaving only their son Stephan, who lived in Hallburg with his cousins ​​Peter, Endres, Fritz and Wilhelm. In 1433, a new pledge agreement for the Hallburg was negotiated with Prince-Bishop Johann II von Brunn . The relatives began an inheritance dispute, which was settled when Endres and Peter moved to Rimbach.

After her death, her sons and nephews continued to expand the Gaibach castle ; the old dispute about inheritance flared up again and in 1490 the Würzburg court had to rule on it. Other officials lived in the Hallburg for a while when Hans moved to Gaibach and thus founded the Gaibach line. Von Butthartt, von Bierstadt and Prichsenstadt were among the officials . Hans zu Rimbach was a supporter of Ruprecht of Bavaria. Suspected muggers also appeared in the ranks of the Zollner.

The sons Caspar, Fritz and Erhard continued the dynasty. Erhard was the bailiff of Volkach and founded the Kleinlangheim line of the Zollner family, Caspar held the office of cathedral capitular and cantor in Würzburg. Fritz received Krautheim as a fief and belonged to the occupation of the Marienberg Fortress in the German Peasants' War. New acquisitions were the Buttlarsche Hof in Krautheim and the purchase of Hallburg Castle.

The following generation got into debt so that Georg Sigismund Gaibach had to sell to the bailiff Valentin Echter von Mespelbrunn in 1579 . He settled on a farm in Neuses and called himself from then on "Zöllner von der Hallburg zu Neuses ad Berg". At the same time, the Rimbach line went out in 1591 with the last agnate Michel.

The legacy continued to deteriorate under the sons and grandchildren of Georg Sigismund. The troops of the Prince-Bishop of Würzburg raided the Hallburg several times and the Zollner had to go into debt. In 1624 a Christoph Zollner was beheaded for " drudgery " in Würzburg. In 1625 the Hallburg had to be left to the lenders. However, Hans Friedrich was able to buy it back a year later. After his death in 1630 only Georg Michel von der Hallburg zu Kleinlangheim lived. In the turmoil of the Thirty Years' War he tried to reunite the fiefs of the Zollner. He even switched to the Protestant denomination and sold the Strehlhof . The last customs officer from and on the Hallburg was Maria Magdalena von Jaxheim, who died in 1681.
