#1 The Habsburg family, which ruled Austria for hundreds of years, can be traced back to the late tenth century, when they lived in the region of the Upper Rhine and Alsace.

#2 The abbey at Muri, which was founded by Radbot, was later handed down to his son Werner, who brought disciplined monks from the Black Forest to set an example. But Werner’s reverent act backfired, as the monastic reform movement was opposed to the idea of having laymen treat monasteries as their own property.

#3 The first Habsburgs were robber barons who in one modern description rode across the countryside, murdering and looting. However, they built castles as symbols of their increasing power.

#4 The Habsburgs were a family that originally came from Habsburg, Austria. They began to accumulate properties elsewhere, and the name of Habsburg slid down the list. It was only revived in the eighteenth century, when it was fashionable to recall ancestral origins.
