Paepcke (noble family)
Paepcke , even Paepke is the name of an originally Mecklenburg letter nobility -Geschlechts.
history
The aristocratic family goes back to a bourgeois academic family Papke / Päpke , active in Mecklenburg and Western Pomerania , to which Greifswald mayor Johann Carl Gottfried Paepke also belongs. Since the 18th century, individual members acquired land in Mecklenburg, which made them eligible for parliament .
With a diploma issued in Vienna on February 23, 1839, Emperor Ferdinand I of Austria elevated the Mecklenburg-Schwerin judiciary Moritz Christian Paepcke at Lütgenhof to the nobility with the title noble . The recognition by Grand Duke Friedrich Franz II took place on October 21, 1839. In 1840 he was accepted into the Mecklenburg nobility.
The family stayed at Lütgenhof until 1945 and, after fleeing and expropriated, took over the Bredeneek estate ( Lehmkuhlen ) from the inheritance of Bodild von Paepcke, née. Thunder.
