Beust (noble family)
Beust is the name of an old altmärk een noble family with the parent bust in Stendal . It appears in a document for the first time in 1228 with Henricus de Bujez, nobilis , with whom the tribe series begins.
history
The family has been mentioned in Altmark documents since the 13th century. In the earliest times it was called von Büste (also de Bujez ), after the place Büste in the district of Stendal , which remained in the family's possession until the end of the 14th century. By diphthongization the name was later from von Beust .
The Ritter von Büste were in coats of arms with other Altmark families, including the von Königsmarck , the Ministerials von Havelberg (from whom the von Rohr family, who immigrated from Bavaria in 1304, took over the red and silver lace coat of arms ) and possibly also in tribal community with the (extinct ) from Möllendorff .
Dietrich von Beust became canon of Stendal in 1326 and Johannes von Beust became bishop of Havelberg in 1427 . Joachim von Beust was an electoral consistorial advisor . He who comes kurpfälzisch - bayer ical eunuch Leopold von Beust , who by a diploma to from 1777 Imperial Count received. In Electoral Saxony, the count was recognized in 1785. Other lines led since the end of the 17th century the title of baron , the acquisition of which is not proven.
The property included Nimritz (approx. 1600 to 1945), Zöpen (1776–1819), Liebau Castle (18th century), Brand Castle (1864–1884), Leeskow (1st half of the 19th century), Neuensalz with Zobes (18th century), Planitz (1579–1617), Obertheres (since 1976).

Baden line
Casimir Liebermann (1702–1763) a son of Adam Liebermann von Beust emigrated from Saxony to Bohemia in the 18th century. There he switched from the Protestant to the Catholic religion and bought something from Eger. He had four sons, the eldest became councilor in Asch, the youngest went into Sardinian service and died there as lieutenant general and governor in Sardinia. He went into service in Württemberg and after his military service became chief forester, his son Karl Ludwig Josef (1737–1792) was a Baden lieutenant colonel and he was the father of Franz von Beust . The line residing in the Grand Duchy of Baden was recognized as a baron in 1856. From this line emerged the line of the Counts of Rhena of the House of Baden , because they descended from Wilhelm Freiherr von Beust (1805–1875), father of the morganatic wife Prince Karl von Baden (1832–1906), Rosalie Luise Freiin von Beust (1845– 1908). Since this was not considered appropriate due to the lack of belonging to the high nobility, especially since she was born through her mother Emilie von Beust. Meier (1820–1878) as the granddaughter of the Baden General Staff Physician Wilhelm Meier (1785–1853) and great-granddaughter of the Baden Privy Councilor Emanuel Meier (1746–1817) even had civil ancestors, she was raised to Countess of Rhena on the occasion of her marriage. With their son, Friedrich Graf von Rhena (1877–1908), the line of the Counts of Rhena that had been brought to life had already died out.
coat of arms
The family coat of arms is split into three points by red and silver. On the helmet stands a growing, red (also red-silver) clad virgin with a wreath of flowers or pearls in open golden hair, who holds in each outstretched hand a flag drawn outwards, like the shield. The helmet cover is red-silver.
The same red and silver top coat of arms (each with a different crest) lead (t) s apart from the Königsmarck , Möllendorff and Havelberg - also from the Altmark and therefore possibly related to the tribe - the Bavarian Rohr and the Thuringian Burckersroda , Heßler , which are related to the latter.
