Klüchtzner is the name of an aristocratic family originally from the Saxon Erzgebirge , later from Kurland , which later spread from there to East Prussia and back to Kursachsen and from there to Thuringia . Branches of the family persist to this day.

history

The family first appeared in a document from 1487–1488 with the trade Georg Kluchzer and then appeared in Courland in 1638 with Tobias Klichtzner .

Under the brothers Gotthard Wolter von Kluechzer (* 1705), the Hessian captain and the lieutenant Ernst Friedrich von Kluechzer († 1782) the family divided into a Prussian-Kurland house and a Saxon house.

The former belonged to the Prussian major general Karl Ludwig Ferdinand von Klüchtzner (1736–1809). Of his daughters, Charlotte (1776–1807) married the Prussian General Prince Georg von Hohenlohe-Ingelfingen (1757–1803), Caroline (1778–1830) with the Prussian Major General Hans von Hülsen (1776–1849). Of his sons was Alexander (1784-1838) Prussian colonel and regimental commander of the 17th Dragoons . The latter nephew Ferdinand (1817-1882) became a Russian major general. The matriculation with the Courland knights took place in 1841 (sub. No. 139). The district aristocratic marshal of the Illuxt district Arthur von Klüchtzner (1842–1912) also belonged to this house . The family was granted the baron status by the Russian senate ukase from 1834 and 1862 . With Wolter von Klüchtzner (* 1883, † after 1939), volunteer of the Baltic Landwehr and Knighthood Secretary, the Prussian-Kurland house in the male line is extinguished.

The Saxon house continued in Jacob Benedict von Klüchtzner (1741-1822), colonel of the infantry from Electoral Saxony . Almost all the sons of the house served as officers in the Saxon army . Wilko of Klüchtzner (1877-1956) continued with his two sons Manfred (* 1911) and Heimart (* 1914), the main line continued.

The married couple Edmund von der Becke († 1912), Saxon lieutenant colonel and adjutant, and Anna von Klüchtzner (1839–1911) received royal permission in 1863 to unite their names and coats of arms from the Saxon house . This Becke-Klüchtzner family has also flourished until recently.

Historical property

The sex was first wealthy in Kurland zu Wahrenbrock (1720-1723). With the possession of Lowieden (1758), the Klüchtzner already exercised indigenous rights . Big and small Lassen , Wohlgrund and Warnowitz were added later. At the time of the confiscation of the goods by Latvia in 1921, the family in Courland no longer owned any estates. In neighboring Lithuania , the Klüchtzner zu Poniemon and Esterhof were wealthy. In East Prussia Mittelhof , Kattern , Prantlack and Wodunkeim belonged to the family estate and in Thuringia Haynrode was owned until 1945.
