The new brugraves became extremely formidable upon the basis of their inheritances in Franconia and Bavaria from the counts of Abensberg about 1200 and from the dukes of Merania in 1248. Their Landgericht of Nuremberg confirmed by royal grant in 1273 completely surrounded the city, their dynastic lands outflanked it, and the castle dominated the town itself." (Arnold, p. 129)
