You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Laurenburg''' is a municipality in the [[Rhein-Lahn]] district of [[Rhineland-Palatinate]], in western [[Germany]].  The town, a health resort situated in the lower [[Lahn]] River valley, belongs to the [[Diez (Verbandsgemeinde)|Diez]] [[Verbandsgemeinde|Municipal Association]].

==History==
Laurenburg [[Castle]] is first mentioned in 1093 in the purported founding charter of the [[Maria Laach Abbey]] (a document some historians consider fabricated). A "[[Comes Dudo de Lurenburch]]", believed to be [[Dudo of Laurenburg]] (ca. 1060 - ca. 1123), is listed fifth on the witness list. Dudo, considered the founder of the aristocratic House of Nassau, is thought to be the builder of the castle (perhaps with his father Rupert, the [[Archbishopric of Mainz|Archbishop of Mainz's]] [[Vogt]] in [[Siegerland]]).

The seat of the House of Nassau was moved, under Dudo's sons [[Rupert I, Count of Laurenburg|Rupert I]] and [[Arnold I, Count of Laurenburg|Arnold I]], to [[Nassau Castle]] around 1124. The original castle in Laurenburg was destroyed in the [[Thirty Years War]] (1618–1648) and remains a ruin. The [[donjon]] of the castle today houses a military museum.

After the removal of the ruling [[House of Nassau from Laurenburg]], the castle was administered by a ''[[Burgmann]]'' of Nassau, whose descendants are still named "''von Laurenburg''" today. Among them, the families of the Loeners and the Buchers are well-known today. In 1643 ''[[Reichsgraf]]'' Peter Melander of Holzappel, an imperial field marshal during the Thirty Years' War, acquired Laurenburg, along with the greater area known as the ''Esterau''.

''Schloss Laurenburg'' ("Laurenburg palace") was first mentioned in documents in 1343. It has been occupied by, among others,
''Reichsgraf'' Peter Melander of Holzappel, Prince Adolph of Nassau-Dillenburg, Prince Leberecht of [[Anhalt-Bernburg]], and the Archdukes Joseph and Stephen of Austria. At the beginning of the 18th century, it became the summer residence of the Prince of [[Anhalt-Bernburg-Schaumburg-Hoym]]. In 1859, it came into the possession of the Holzappel Silver and Lead Mining Society.

In 1795, Laurenburg was temporarily occupied by the [[France|French]]. In 1806, it became part of the [[Nassau (state)|Duchy of Nassau]], which was itself annexed by [[Prussia]] in 1866. Since 1947, it has been part of the federal state of Rheinland-Palatinate.

[[Viticulture]] in Laurenburg was first documented in 1445, with the establishment of a vineyard at the Taubenhaus of Count Philip the Elder of [[Katzenelnbogen]] under the castle.

==Religious life==
Laurenburg is part of the [[Roman Catholic]] parish of [[St. Boniface]] in [[Holzappel]]. The parish belongs to the [[Diez, Germany|Diez]] [[Diez Pastoral Area of the Limburg district|Pastoral Area of the]] [[Limburg an der Lahn|Limburg]] [[Diez Pastoral Area of the Limburg district|district]] in the [[Diocese of Limburg]].

The [[Protestant]] community is part of [[Holzappel]] parish, which belongs to the [[Diez Deanery of the South Nassau Provostship]] of the [[Evangelical Church in Hesse and Nassau]] (EKHN).
