Hohenberg
Hohenberg was a Swabian county ruled by a branch of the Hohenzollern family. Its counts held Horb on the Neckar and made Rottenburg their seat around 1280.
Partitions and debts reduced the county, with lands sold to Württemberg and Count Palatine Rupert in the 1360s and 1370s. In 1381 Rudolf III sold its core, including Hohenberg and Horb, to Duke Leopold III of Austria for 66,000 gold gulden. The main line died out in 1389, and the county survived in law as Habsburg territory until 1806.
