Vogtei [Governance] Stein

The Steinhaus in Eger was, as already mentioned in the description of that city on p. 312, confiscated by the Crown of Bohemia and, along with the associated sources of income, it was sold on 28 June 1813 to Lord Kaspar Wilhelm (after 1824 von Helmfeld), owner of the estate Altenteich. In 1843, his son Johann Wilhelm von Helmfeld obtained it [by inheritance, see above]. It is consolidated with the books of the royal office of the castle count in Eger and is under the political and jurisdictional administration of the estate St. Clara, which belongs to the same owner.
