Dehio (family)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dehio (also: de Hio ) is a Baltic family with Dutch roots. The name became known in Germany through the Dehio manual founded by Georg Dehio . By Julius Dehio (1817-1893) and Karl Dehio (1851-1927), the family received the hereditary Russian service nobility .

Origin and meaning

The name Dehio comes from Christoffer de Hio (1669–1728), who immigrated to Reval in 1718 . After the negotiations of the Baltic Regional Council - in which Reval's mayor Erhard Dehio (1855–1940) sat - failed in 1918 , the family fled communism to Germany after 200 years in the Baltic States.

The Georg Dehio Culture Prize and the Georg Dehio Book Prize as well as the planet "48415 Dehio" discovered in 1987 are named after Georg Dehio .

Parts of the family estate are in the collections of v. Grote / Dehio in the document collection of the Herder Institute (DSHI) and in the Dehio-Friedländer family archive in the Hessian State Archive in Marburg (inventory 340 Dehio-Friedländer).
