Meinhardiner (Family : Gorizia, Italy)
Meinhardiner family, also known as the Counts of Gorizia or House of Gorizia, originated in the 12th century ruling the county of Tirol. In 1271, their vast possessions were split. The main branch kept the recently acquired Tirol and became known as Counts of Gorizia-Tirol or the Meinhardiner Line after Meinhard, Duke of Carinthia. The cadet branch, known as the Albertine Line, after Meinhard's younger brother Albert, took over the original possessions in the County of Gorizia, the Puster Valley, as well as the title of palatine counts in Carinthia. The dynasty became extinct in the year 1500, when the last male family member Count Leonhard von Görz died without issue.
