history

origin

As the first member of the sex, Bendzmirus (Bandemer) de Kodzelow appears in a document issued by Dietrich von Altenburg . Dietrich was Grand Master of the Teutonic Order from 1335 to 1341 . In 1403 a bandemer from Gammin appears as a witness.

The uninterrupted line of trunks begins with Czier , who is mentioned in documents from 1460. According to Johannes Micraelius , the family was "an old family from the Szczecin region ".

Spread and personalities

The two lines to Schönenwalde and to Rotten and Selesen were formed early on. Numerous members of the family were in Kurbrandenburg or royal Prussian services. In 1694 Werner von Bandemer, heir to several estates near Stolp in Western Pomerania , donated the Bandemer Family Scholarship in his will . Around 1700 Dietrich von Bandemer was chamberlain and stable master of all of the dams in Pomerania. His son Joachim Christian von Bandemer became adjutant general of field marshal Dubislav Gneomar von Natzmer , later he fought in the Silesian Wars with distinction in the battles of Soor and Groß-Jägersdorf and in 1757 became royal Prussian major general . He died on September 28, 1764. From his marriage to Katharine Charlotte Countess von Schlippenbach there were two sons and three daughters. Hans Wilhelm von Bandemer was major general and commandant of Fort Prussia near Neisse and later von Glatz . Another bandemer was a councilor in Frankfurt an der Oder and a knight of the Order of St. John .

The writer Susanne von Bandemer (* 1757), born von Franklin, married a Major von Bandemer in 1766. The marriage was divorced, as was her second marriage to Kurt Graf von Bohlen . She later resumed her first husband's name. She died in Koblenz in 1828 . Wilhelm von Bandemer (* 1861; † 1914) was a member of the Prussian mansion and Knight of Honor of the Order of St. John.

The Bandemer also spread to Courland , initially under the name Bandemir and with a slightly modified coat of arms . Ernst von Bondemir (* approx. 1570) was chamberlain and captain as well as heir to Neermis. He was married to Dorothea von Klingsporn (* approx. 1575). His son was named Georg Johann von Bandemer (* approx. 1605) and was married to Gertrud von Nettelhorst (* approx. 1610). Shortly after the end of the Thirty Years' War , however, the Courland line became extinct. A direct connection with the Pomeranian family has not yet been established, but is considered unequivocal. The outcome of this house was also processed literarily.

Possessions

The majority of the family's property was in Pomerania, including Silkow, Selesen, Reitz, Kükow, Schönwalde, Demminke, Cubnhoff, Wittebeck, Lankwitz and Wusselken and Rotten, as well as Weitenhagen in the former Stolp district .

In the mid-19th century, the Bandemer zu Beckel, Wendisch Buckow , Gambin , Weitenhagen, Kukow, Kunhof, Labehn, Selesen and Sorchow owned. In the Margraviate of Brandenburg they temporarily owned Groß- and Kleinbeeren and Diedersdorf with Diedersdorf Castle near Teltow .

Coat of arms history

Imprints of seals show the bull (buffalo) pierced by an arrow to the left, with the point on the body pointing down to the right. At Siebmacher , the coat of arms is divided transversely, a division that the seal impressions also show several times. Accordingly, the bull grows up from the lower half of the shield, facing the left. On the helmet the bull of the upper half of the shield. In the case of Eilhard Lubinus , Map of Pomerania (1618), the shield is divided diagonally to the right, the lower field bare, and above a growing, left-looking, crowned bull with its head turned forward on the helmet.

In Johannes Micraelius Six Books from Old Pomerania. Volume 6, page 463 (1640). Since the wedding with Frau von Klingsporn , the buffalo-ox with a star (tail wheel) on its head (as can also be seen in the Klingsporn coat of arms) has been described with a hunter's spear jumping out of a blue and white chess board. On the helmet of the buffalo ox. Christian Friedrich August von Meding mentions noble coats of arms in his messages. Volume III, pages 23–24 (1791) a drawing of the heraldic register with the inscription Adrianus Bandemer, Pomeranus, Friburgi Brisgoiae, Jan. 14, 1585 : in the silver field behind or above a green three-hilly mountain a red buffalo ox half emerges. It is crowned with gold, has red horns, knocks out its tongue, and an iron-colored hunting spear on a gold handle goes through its chest so that the point comes out through its back. There is a six-pointed gold star on the helmet, and the helmet covers are red and silver.

After Ernst Heinrich Kneschke The coats of arms of the German baronial and noble families. Volume 1, pages 23-24 (1855) shows the shield from a slanted chess of blue and silver in four rows, the top eight fields, in the following, decreasing according to the shape of the shield, a protruding, right-looking buffalo of natural color, between the horns of which are a six-pointed, golden star, and which is pierced with a golden, iron-tipped hunting spear from below so that the point can be seen above the neck to the left. On the shield is a crowned helmet with a six-pointed gold star.
