Von Langen or Langenn is the name of a family from Brandenburg and Silesia that belongs to the ancient Lusatian nobility. Name changes occurred through the adoption of the name of the estate or through family ties with an increase in coat of arms.

history

As early as 1315, the von Langen zu Krimnitz , Leipe , Stennewitz, Zerkwitz , Stollhof and Lübbenau , as well as Lehde and Groß Wasserburg (formerly part of the Storkow rule ) were wealthy. The family first appears in a document on September 29, 1315 with Bodo von Langenn in Lübbenau. Bodo (Botho) von Ileburg sold Christian and his sons Christian and Thilemann the Lübben Castle , the city of Lübben and the associated villages. "Kristano milti dicto longo seniori suisque filiis Thylemanno et Kristano." In 1328 Gunthero von Langen owned Pretschen . The Langen von Münchehofe family emerged from this line in the second half of the 14th century, where the line of roots begins around 1390 with Hasse von Langenn.

In 1733 Christian Andreas Langenn, lieutenant colonel from Electoral Saxony , received the imperial nobility status , confirming the old nobility of his family and their coat of arms . His descendants also had high positions in government, court and military service.
