history

Still operating under the name of Kokoske , the family owned the Dzechlin estate as early as the 15th century . In 1575 were Malschitzky with Vargow invested . In 1828 the Malschitzky agnates were asked to assert their claims to Vargow, otherwise the estate would have fallen to the Crown as Allodium . In 1835 the family in Prussia seems to have died out, but perhaps flourished for a few more years in Mecklenburg, where individual members were in government service.

The Malschitzky provided numerous officers in the Prussian army . Including two major generals who were each also commanders of an infantry or cavalry regiment . Johann Friedrich von Malschitzky received the order Pour le Mérite in 1793 .
