Johannes,
Your translation is excellent. Thanks for putting this together for
everyone. Have you added it to the website? (I haven't checked). One
comment I'd like to make:

Burg = Castle
Herr = Mister
The way I read Burgherr is that it should translate to "Lord of the Castle",
or "Castle Lord".
How long did it take you to build such a great castle? I love the
battlements....
