List of noble families named Kielmansegg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kielmannsegg is the name of three noble families who are not related to each other . While the older family from Württemberg went out early, the two younger ones, who come from Holstein and Westphalia , agreed on a family merger as early as the 17th century and also refer to each other heraldically . Due to a family resolution from 1909, Kielmansegg is the only name spelling. Branches of the Holstein family currently persist.
