Mediatized House of Orsini
House of Orsini-Rosenberg
Orsini-Rosenberg
(also Ursin-Rosenberg) is the name of an old Austrian noble family. Originally sprang out from the family Von Graben (an apparent,
or illegitimate branch of the House of Meinhardin) from Schloss Alt-Grabenhofen near the city of Graz. The earliest known member of the Orsini-Rosenberg family, Konrad ab dem Roesenperg, lived
around 1322. He was a member of the low nobility who lived at Schloss Alt-Grabenhofen, between Reinerkogel and Rosenberg.
During the 17th and 18th century, the succees of that family arose from the steady accumulation of land, and loyalty to the
Habsburg Emperor.
On
August 2, 1633 Johann Andreas von Rosenberg, Herr von Rosenberg, was elevated to the Reichsfreiherrenstand with the title
Freiherr of the Holy Roman Empire, Freiherr of Lerchenau, Herr of Magereckh and Grafenstein and in 1648 to the Austrian Grafenstand.
Since 1681 the family Orsini-Rosenberg held the title as Reichsgraf and in 1683 they became members of the Reichstag. At the
same year they take the name of the old Italian princely Orsini family; their family name changed to Ursini-Rosenberg or Orsini-Rosenberg.
On October 9, 1790 Franz Xaver Wolfgang von Orsini-Rosenberg elevated to Reichsfürst von Rosini-Rosenberg.
