Fürstenberg

[edit]

Shouldn't the link to Fürstenberg (town) be Fürstenberg (castle) instead? It doesn't really constitute a separate town anymore, does it? --Jpbrenna 17:56, 11 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I suppose --Nomadic1

Google is telling me there is also a wine called Schloss Furstenberg. Is this made by the von Fürstenbergs? --Jpbrenna 04:53, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know. Click the links to find out :D --Nomadic1
None of them say. The beer is definitely theirs though. --Jpbrenna 08:22, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fürstenberg (state)Fürstenberg (county)More specific.--TopoChecker (talk) 20:20, 19 January 2011 (UTC) comment by banned editor[reply]

  • Comment -- The article has its present name to distinguish it from Fürstenberg Castle, which was its capital, to which Fürstenberg redirects. On the other hand, "county" is a term used for the area ruled by a count. American usage of "county" no doubt derives from English usage, where the notional ruler is called an earl and except in counties palatinate, it has merely been a title sicne soon afte rthe Norman Conquest. "Count" is an anglicisation of the French title, and is used as a common translation of the German title "graf". Peterkingiron (talk) 21:59, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
