history

The cathedral vicar Siegfried Hanfmuß in Meißen is the first documented representative of this family, who is mentioned in 1369.

Hans Hanfnuß [= hemp must] appears in a document from Heinrich von Gera , Herr von Lobenstein , in 1445. His two sons Georg and Nicol Hansfmuß bought the desert village of Göritzberg from the Petersberg monastery in 1461. Georg and Nicol Hanfmuß also appear in 1517.

A Georg Hanfmuß sat on Serba in 1526 and a Nicol Hanfmuß in 1521 and 1539 on Etzdorf and Rauda near Eisenberg in Thuringia .

Georg Hanfmuß was at the Reichstag in Augsburg in 1530 as cupbearer to Elector Georg von Sachsen.

In 1575 Christoph Hanfmuß, son of Nickels von Hanfmuß auf Etzdorf, died of a wound that Rudolph von Kayn had inflicted on him in a tumult in the area of ​​the town of Eisenberg.

In 1580 the von Hanfmuß sat on Kleinaga and Etzdorf near Gera .

From 1648 to 1685 the small Vorwerk Draschwitz was owned by the family.

At the end of the 17th century, the Wernsdorf manor and the two feudal estates in Unterstessa were owned by the family. Hans Siegmund von Hanfmuß owned these goods until 1715. Alongside Nicol, he was one of Wilhelm von Hanfmuss's two sons and since his son Friedrich Siegmund died in childhood, this branch of the family died out.

Nicol von Hanfmuß had two sons, Ernst (died before 1728) and Friedrich von Hanfmuß. The latter lived in Bitterfeld in 1728 and with him this noble family died out in the male line around the middle of the 18th century.

Monuments
