Wild were a Saxon noble family that also lived in parts of Franconia, southern Germany.

History

The Sack and Wild families were enfeoffed with Epprechtstein Castle in the 14th century.

The two families became vagabonds and robber knights, taking merchants hostage, mainly from Eger, and would only release them for a ransom. As a result, they attracted the attention of the burgraves of Nuremberg who attacked them because their raids were affecting their territorial politics. In 1352, they stormed the castle in order to seize it and hold it as a fief. In 1355/1356 the burgraves purchased the entire estate of the castle, the Amt and the parish of Kirchenlamitz.

The coat of arms of the House of Wild is a golden crescent on a blue field.
