!!!Breuner, Hochadelsgeschlecht

Breuner, Austrian noble family from Styria, 15th-19th century. The 
founders, Conrad and Andreas B., came to Styria from Utrecht or 
Cologne in 1385, they and their families were knights. The Styrian 
line of the family was given the title of count in 1666 and died out 
in 1827. Philipp B. (d. April 23, 1556)), president of the Court 
Chamber and baron since 1550, founded the Austrian lines. His son 
Seyfried was Governor of Lower Austria from 1587-1591, and his wife 
inherited the estates of the  Eyczing family. An older line of the 
family at Asparn (received the title of count in 1624) died out in 
1716, the younger line at Asparn in 1894, the Nussdorf line in 1862. 
Bishop Philipp Friedrich  Breuner is related to the younger Asparn 
line.
