history

The Krage family originally came from Thuringia and spread to Saxony, Anhalt and Braunschweig. Family representatives had seats in 1580 in Siegelsdorf near Bitterfeld , 1596 in Schrenz near Zörbig , 1664 in Großwerther near Nordhausen , 1684 in Kreisfeld in the Magdeburg part of the sequestered county of Mansfeld and 1700 in Reibitzsch near Delitzsch and Göderitz. In Braunschweig they were to be found in Rottorf and in the year 1777 in Lower Saxony in the county of Hohenstein .

In 1513 Heinrich Krage was in a big dispute with the indebted Count von Mansfeld, because they did not repay him the money and interest. Eckard Krage was sitting in Siegelsdorf in 1580. His grandson, Heinrich Krage , was Princely Anhalt Koethen's councilor and canon in Halberstadt . In 1618, Prince Ludwig I of Anhalt-Köthen accepted him into the Fruit- Bringing Society, where he was given the name Der Fattened because of his corpulence .

Heinrich Krage left Casimir Dietrich Krage as the only son, who worked as a princely-Anhalt councilor in Zerbst until his death in 1667 . He sold the Schrenz family estate in 1661 to his cousin Hans Adolf Krage, who had already bought the Herrmannsche Gut in Schrenz in 1656. Hans Adolph Krage died in 1684 and was inherited by Christoph Julius Krage , who paid off his siblings in 1689 on the basis of an inheritance contract.

Christoph Julius Krage became major general and fortress commander in Wolfenbüttel. He had no sons himself, only nephews, the trail of which is lost in the first half of the 18th century. It can be assumed that this noble family died out at any time.
