 From what it says in a 1318 "Rechtsweistum" (a "Weistum" – cognate with English "wisdom" – was a legal pronouncement issued by men learned in law in the Middle Ages and early modern times; this one dealt with the law itself), however, the Offenbach Monastery must have acquired its own powers and even its own jurisdiction.Then functioning as Lord of the Court was Wenz von Moilenstein (Mühlenstein), a Waldgravial vassal.From 16th-century "Weistümer", however, it is clear that "Offenbacher Recht" ("Offenbach Law") became ever more limited over the centuries.
