The Lorbers in Carinthia

Probable link

Möglicherweise über die Besitztümer des Hochstifts Bamberg Herkunft von den fränkischen Lorbern. Sehr wahrscheinlich Verbindungen zum Südsteirisch-Slowenischen Ast über eine gemeinsame Kärtnerisch-Steirische Linie. Genauere Forschungen stehen noch aus.

Possible progenitor

The earliest known mentions were Thomas and Dorothe Lorber, 1466 in Wurdach / Carinthia.

Werdegang

The family left many traces in Carinthia, such as the hamlet Lorberhof north of Klagenfurt, the hill Lorberkogel in Althofen or the street name Lorbersteig in Krumpendorf am Wörthersee.
