Hohenburg (Lenggries)
The Hohenburg (previously also called Hochenburg) is a ruined medieval castle near Lenggries in Bavaria, Germany. Once a dominating centre of power in the region, it was destroyed by fire on 21 July 1717. History The castle was built on a crag overlooking the Hirschbach; the first recorded mention of it dates to around 1100. For centuries it was the major centre of power in the Isarwinkel, the region along the Isar between Bad Tölz and Wallgau. The community of log-rafters and craftsmen which grew up below it became Lenggries. The original owners of the Hohenburg were the lords of Thann. Late in the 12th century it came into the possession of the lords of Tölz, and in 1262 passed to the House of Wittelsbach, Wittelsbachs. From 1294 it was in the possession of the lords of Egling, then from 1396 of the lords of Maxlrain, who substantially rebuilt and enlarged it in 1410–20. In 1522 it passed to the House of Schellenberg. Finally in 1566 Dionys von Schellenberg sold the ca ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Schloss Hohenburg
Schloss Hohenburg is a Baroque ''schloss'' (palace) in Lenggries, Bavaria, Germany. History Construction by the Herwarth family Count Ferdinand Joseph von Herwarth had the palace built in classical Baroque style in 1712–18 to replace the medieval Hohenburg, which had been destroyed by fire in 1707 while occupied by Austrian troops during the War of the Spanish Succession. It is located approximately west, at the foot of the hill on which the old castle was built; stones from the ruin were used in the construction, and also to build the Lenggries parish church, St. James (german: St. Jakob), which was completed in 1722 and in which he is buried. The main building of the palace has three storeys and a hip roof with waterspouts in the shape of dragons; the central portion has a mezzanine and the corner bays an additional half storey. There were originally three wings forming a large enclosed courtyard on the east side, of which two remain. A solid clock tower rises above th ...

Burgruine Hohenburg Auf Rosenberg
Burgruine Hohenburg auf Rosenberg is a ruined medieval castle near Spittal an der Drau in Carinthia, Austria. It is located high above the Drava Valley on the southern slope of the Ankogel Group, part of the Hohe Tauern mountain range. History Probably erected in the late 11th century, the castle was first mentioned as ''castrum Hohenburc'' in an 1142 deed. It was then the seat of a Bavarian noble family, who as Counts of Lurn administered the Lurngau (see: Lurnfeld) region within the Duchy of Carinthia. The last count, Altmann, had become Prince-Bishop of Trent in 1124, and upon his death in 1149, the castle was bequested to the Archbishopric of Salzburg and became the seat of episcopal ''ministeriales''. Under the mediation of Duke Ulrich III of Carinthia, in 1263 a division of the property was arranged between the Salzburg archbishops and the neighbouring Counts of Ortenburg, heirs of the extinct Counts of Lurn, who had aspired the Hohenburg estates for decades. In 1311 Ar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Château De Hohenbourg
The Château de Hohenbourg is a ruined castle in the ''commune'' of Wingen, in the Bas-Rhin ''département'' of France. It has been listed since 1898 as a ''monument historique'' by the French Ministry of Culture. History The castle is partly built within the rock and dates to the mid-13th century. Its origins remain obscure; the first known occupants were the Pullers, known as the Hohenbourgs. Some of their seigneuries were common to the Fleckensteins, a cause of frequent rivalries. The castle was restored at the beginning of the 16th century. In 1680, the castle was destroyed by the armies of Joseph de Montclar on the orders of Louis XIV. Structure The artillery tower is a fine example of early 16th century military architecture. Also from this period is a beautiful Renaissance doorway. From the terrace the panorama takes in the Northern Vosges and the Palatinate. Access The castle can be reached from the village of Lembach along the road to Bitche and the frontier road, ...
