The Talmberk family (German: Talmberg or Talenberg) was a Bohemian noble house. The family ruled the town of Talmberk and Talmberk Castle, along with various other estates.[1]
History
[edit | edit source]The Talmberk family was descended from the Kounice family of Bohemia and Moravia.[2] The Talmberk family was founded at the end of the 13th century. The first known member is William of Talmberk, a descendant of Hroznata of Úžice who was first mentioned in 1297.[3]
The family came under the ownership of Jankov in 1418. They remained in possession of the village until 1702, when it was sold.[4]
The Talmberk Codex remained in the family from the 16th century until the death of the last member.[5] It was later given to the Library of the National Museum of the National Museum in Prague.[6]
The Talmberks largely sided with the House of Habsburg during the Bohemian Revolt, and they were allowed to remain in the gentlemen's class. At the end of the 16th century, the family had split into separate branches.[2] The last male member of the family died in 1735.[7]
