Königsegg

Königsegg was a state in the southeastern part of what is now Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

In 1629, Königsegg was raised to an imperial estate and became a member of the College of the Counts of Swabia at the Reichstag.

In 1806, the Rheinbundakte mediatised Königsegg to the Kingdom of Württemberg.

It was bordered by the County of Scheer, the Mainau Commandry of the Teutonic Order, the Abbacy of Weingarten, the Principality of Fürstenberg, the Abbacy of Schussenried, the County of Waldburg and Austria.
