Parkentin , also Perkentin , Berckentin , Berkentin or Barkentin u. Ä., is the name of an old noble family from Lauenburg , which later also gained a certain reputation in Mecklenburg and Denmark .

history

Lütgenhof Castle

The family borrows its name from the Berkenthin family estate , which it owned along with Zecker (Zecher) and where it was first documented in 1261 with Detlevus de Barckenthien . The family spread from 1301, especially in Mecklenburg, where it was very respected and wealthy. The Parkentins had also sealed the Union of Estates on August 1, 1523 and in 1572 participated in the transfer of the monasteries. A branch of the family went into Danish service and was able to rise to the highest courtly offices, as a result of which Christian August von Berkentin (* 1694; † 1758) was ennobled to the Danish count status in 1750. In 1746 he sold his Mecklenburg property around Dassow , some of which had been owned by Parkentin since 1301 . Until 1755, Hans Dietrich von Berkentin († 1769) still owned the Schönfeld estate . In the 18th century, the Parkentins also had the Prieschendorf and Muchow estates.

The Bolz estate belonged to the von Parkentien family for 130 years from 1605 . In the middle oak beam of the single-storey half-timbered canteen standing in front of the former manor house, the inscription Anno still reminds of FRIEDRICH BALTARSAR PARKENTIN 1729, July 9th. at these times. The memorial plaque of the conventual Maria Christiane Ilsabe von Parkentin from the house of Bolz is located on the nun gallery of the Ribnitz abbey church . On the heraldic right side is the alliance coat of arms of her parents, the father Joachim Friedrich von Perkentien ad H. Bolz and the mother Ilsabe Dorothea von Perkentien née von Sperling ad H. Groß Raden. In the monastery church there is also the tombstone of this conventual, but here her name is written Perkentien . With her death on April 8, 1775 in the Ribnitz monastery, the tribe of women in Mecklenburg went extinct. In 1700 Dorothea Sophia von Perkentien was entered in the registered book of the Dobbertin Monastery under the number 30.

With the Danish privy councilor and Oberlanddrost of the County of Pinneberg Heinrich Dietrich von Barkenthin († 1769) the sex is in the male line, with Louise von Plessen , born. from Berckentin († 1799) then also assumed a female line.

The family coat of arms is divided with a right tip of gold, red and silver. On the crowned helmet with red and gold covers on the right and red and silver covers on the left , seven peacock feathers . The Parkentin family had five different coat of arms variations, some of which differed greatly from each other. The coat of arms from the Bolz house was the most frequently used coat of arms of the family.

The Mecklenburg families of Negendank and Plüskow were coats of arms . According to research by Georg Christian Friedrich Lisch , the coat of arms was originally a shield that was split across. The upper part did not take up half of it, but rather a third (like a shield head ), while the lower part was divided diagonally into itself. The lower division turned into the apex over time.
