  Stadt Aurich - im Herzen Ostfrieslands: History
Aurich developed into the unrivalled centre of East Friesia because of the rapid growth of its cattle and horse market, and its reputation spread as far as the Mediterranean region.
Aurich blossomed under the Cirksenas, who were ennobled in 1464.They built a new, imposing moated castle on the site of today`s castle, before Aurich was completely destroyed by fire at the beginning of the 16th century in the Saxonian Feuds (Sächsische Fehde).
Aurich also became a seat of the aristocracy at this time, laying the foundations for its important function as a centre of administration and political representation until today.
