Utrecht Estates (those within Utrecht Province; see Drenthe, Overijssel, and Twenthe for out-provincial dependencies.)
ABCOUDE and WIJK-bij-DUURSTEDE Abcoude
is a village in the
province of Utrecht. It lies about 8 miles (13 km.) southeast
of the centre of
Amsterdam. It was one of
those lordships which emerged under the leadership of servants (
ministeriales)
of the prince-bishopric of Utrecht. A number of these lordships were
situated
in the borderzone with the county of Holland, which annexed some of
them, but
Abcoude remained a fief of the bishopric of Utrecht. The castle of
Abcoude was
founded c. 1268. Very little is known about its first ruling family.
The
second ruling house descended from a family called Van Zuylen
[Su(y)len],
residing in the village Su(y)len near Rees, county of Cleves. Other
members of
this house ruled
Zuylen (in
the
bishopric of Utrecht) and
Anholt,
situated in Germany on the border of Gelders and Cleves.
Wijk-bij-Duurstede is a city in the province of
Utrecht situated on the
River Lek, some 13 miles (22 km.) to the south-east of Utrecht. It is the successor of Dorestad, once
one of the
biggest, most important and flourishing trading places or emporia of
Northwestern Europe. The Vikings frequently raided the place during the
9th
century, which after 850 shrunk to a small agricultural site. Its
territory was
granted c. 1275 (or c. 1260) to the Lord of Abcoude, who founded
Duurstede
Castle, a fief of the bishopric of Utrecht.

- Willem (Lord of Gaasbeek 1376-9)..............1379-1407
- A succession crisis
erupted in 1407, pitting Jan Brederode against Jacob Zuylen. Jan claimed
the succession as husband of Johanna (d. 1411), daughter of
Willem; she had entered a convent as a nun from 1402 and refused to
rule or to support her
husband; he had, as it happens, been a monk, but had abandoned the
monastery and his vows in 1407 to pursue the secular lordship.

(arch)bishops
of Utrecht 1528-1580.
CULEMBORG
A lordship, established by a local ruler
of Bosi(n)chem (Beusi(n)chem) who built a small castle before ca. 1270
on a territory that belonged to the chapter of Oudmunster of the
bishopric of Utrecht. This was the core of the later city of Culemborg
(former ‘Kuilenburg’), a merchant village situated
on the
ridge of the river De Meer and the south bank of the river Lek - the
Lodship of Buren is immediately to the east. Culemborg was a fief of
the county of Gelderland 1281-1555 and became a county of the HRE in
1555. The city had its own jurisdiction. Whoever committed a crime or
misdemeanor had to appear before the "schout en schepenen" (sheriff and
bailiffs) and would not escape his just punishment; but he did have the
right to defend himself, and as long as he remained within the walls of
Culemborg his accuser was denied entrance to the town. Thus, many
bankrupt bankers and financiers fled to Culemborg and, even today in
Amsterdam the phrase "to go to Culemborg" meant to go bankrupt.

IJSSELSTEIN A city 7 miles (12 km.)
south-southwest of the
centre of Utrecht. It originated as a settlement in the
Utrecht-Holland border area on the river Hollandse IJssel, where clayey
and peaty soils were reclaimed from the early 11th century. The
lordship of IJsselstein came into being around the village of Benschop,
ruled by servants (ministeriales)
of the bishop of Utrecht. The seat of these lords of Benschop was later
moved to the castle of IJsselstein, which became the centre of the
later city.

MONTFOORT The city of Montfoort lies in the
south-western
part of the Utrecht province, in the middle of the Lopikerwaard, on the
Hollandse IJssel river, situated between Utrecht to the east (9 miles -
15 km.) and Rotterdam to the west (25 miles - 40 km.). Godfried van
Rhenen, bishop of Utrecht (1156-1178) had a strong fortress built on a
strategic point of the Hollandse IJssel to
protect his
bishopric against attacks and looting by the counts of
Holland.
The date of its foundation is ca. 1170. Castle and adjacent territory
constituted the lordship of Montfoort, fief of the bishopric of
Utrecht, ruled by castellani (châtelains) from ca. 1170 to
1281,
and by burgraves afterwards until 1648.
- Within the
Bishopric of Utrecht, to 1528.

bishop of Utrecht, and Rudolf II of Coevorden with his army of Drenths.
The Drenthe rebels managed to beat the bishop’s forces, and
killed most of it including bishop Otto and many of his supporting
warlords. The horses of the bishop’s army sank into the
swampy
ground, and the knights with their heavy armour were unable to fight
effectively because of this. The Drenthe rebel army was light, and was
used to fighting on this kind of ground. The battle bears many
resemblances to the Battle of the Golden Spurs in Flanders in 1302

VIANEN A
lordship consisting of a
chip of territory on the southern
bank of the river Lek, with the Lordship of Culemborg immediately to
the east. It was established around 1258/71 when Hubrecht de
Schenk, lord of Bosichem, granted a part of Culemborg to his
second son
Zweder. A castle (“Op de Bol”), the origin of the
later
city of Vianen (15 km south of Utrecht) was built in the last quarter
of the 13th century. Vianen formed a self-proclaimed sovereign seignory
till 1795. During the Middle Ages and the Early Modern period, as a
"free city”, it was a haven for felons, escaped serfs and
bankrupts.

ZUYLEN Zuylen
Castle, the core of the small lordship of Zuylen, is situated on the
river
Vecht in the tiny village of Oud-Zuilen near the city of Utrecht. The roots of the family
begin in the 13th century, when the descendants of Stephan I (Dutch:
Steven) van
Zuylen (Germ.: Sulen, Suylen), a knight from the region of Rees in the
county
of Cleves, started to intermarry with the local noble families of
Utrecht and
thereby gained an important political role in the region as servants (ministeriales)
of the
bishopric of Utrecht. The castle was founded by Steven III van Zuylen
ca 1250. They were
also the rulers of the Lordship of Anholt ca. 1200-1380.
