| dbo:abstract | Ritterswerder (litauisch Ritersverderis) war eine Insel in der Memel im heutigen Litauen.Im 14. und 15. Jahrhundert existierte hier eine hölzerne Burg des Deutschen Ordens. Ihre Lage wird bei Lampėdžiai, heute Teil von Kaunas, vermutet. (de) Ritterswerder (German for "knight's ait") was a short-lived wooden castle built by the Teutonic Order in fall 1391. It was located on an island in the Neman River near Lampėdžiai, now part of the city of Kaunas. The Order built the castle after they failed to capture Vilnius, capital of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, in a five-week siege in September–October 1390. It became the headquarters of Vytautas, future Grand Duke of Lithuania, while he fought in the Lithuanian Civil War (1389–92) against his cousin Jogaila, King of Poland. In spring 1392, Henry of Masovia, Bishop of Płock, arrived to the castle to secretly negotiate an agreement between Vytautas and Jogaila. Here, about three weeks later, Henry married Rymgajla, Vytautas' sister, prompting many rumors and speculations. When the cousins reconciled, Vytautas turned against the Teutonic Order and burned Ritterswerder and two other Teutonic castles on the Neman River before returning to Vilnius. During a campaign in 1394, the Order attempted to rebuild the castle but did not complete it as they were attacked by the Lithuanians. The Order decided to abandon the construction and besiege Vilnius for the second time. When in 1404, Vytautas confirmed the Peace of Raciąż in Kaunas, the Grand Master issued several documents from the island but did not mention the castle. The island has since disappeared as the river changed its course during the ages. It is believed that the island is now a hill on the right bank of the Neman River in Lampėdžiai. (en) Ritterswerder (parola tedesca che significa "waard del cavaliere") fu un castello di legno costruito dall'Ordine teutonico nell'autunno 1391. Si trovava su un'isola nel fiume Nemunas vicino a Lampėdžiai, oggi parte della città di Kaunas. L'Ordine costruì il castello dopo che non riuscì a conquistare Vilnius, capitale del granducato di Lituania, in un assedio di cinque settimane a settembre–ottobre 1390. Diventò il quartier generale di Vitoldo, futuro granduca di Lituania, mentre combatté nella guerra civile lituana (1389-1392) contro suo cugino Jogaila, re di Polonia. A primavera 1392, , vescovo di Płock, arrivò al castello per negoziare in segreto un accordo tra Vitoldo e Jogaila. In questo luogo, circa tre settimane dopo, Enrico sposò Rymgajla, sorella di Vitoldo, suscitando molte dicerie e speculazioni. Quando i cugini si riconciliarono, Vitoldo si rivoltò contro l'Ordine teutonico e prima di fare ritorno a Vilnius bruciò Ritterswerder e altri due castelli teutonici sul fiume Nemunas. Durante una campagna nel 1394, l'Ordine tentò di ricostruire il castello ma non lo completò in quanto fu attaccato dai lituani. L'Ordine decise quindi di abbandonare la costruzione e assediare Vilnius per la seconda volta. Quando, nel 1404, Vitoldo confermò il trattato di Raciąż a Kaunas, il Gran maestro emanò diversi documenti dall'isola ma non menzionò il castello. Da allora l'isola scomparì siccome il fiume nei secoli cambiò il suo corso. Si crede che l'isola sia ora una collina sulla riva destra del fiume Nemunas presso Lampėdžiai. (it) |
