Establishment

  • January 1191: Around 1190, Archbishop Philipp I acquired the castle of Itter with 200 hooves from Wittekind II von Schwalenberg for 200 marks for the Archdiocese of Cologne. The lords of Itter subsequently asserted themselves between their much more powerful neighbors by becoming dependent on them and thus also their protection in a number of ways.
