history

Burial chapel of the Pressentins

The family belonging to the Mecklenburg prehistoric nobility with the parent company Prestin near Sternberg appears for the first time in a document with Hence de Priscentin on June 28, 1275. The continuous line of tribe begins in 1270 with Petrus , heir to Prestin. The family borrows its name from their ancestral estate Prestin, formerly also Preszentyn , and finally Pressentin. From 1348 onwards, the village of Prestin was also in the possession of the von Pressentin family for 600 years, who also built and furnished the church and had always been the patron of the church. They owned other surrounding goods such as Witzin and Stieten. In 1790 the family sold their manor, which was fit for the state assembly, and which was incorporated into Sternberg in 1830. The family blooms in two lines, the Prestiner and the Stietener line, which in turn is divided into two branches, the Groß-Kussewitzer and the Jesendorfer. In 1872 the Pressentin headquarters in Prestin was lost, only the grave chapel built in 1808 by Johann Wilhelm von Pressentin remained the family's last resting place.

The two-story half-timbered building erected in 1782 by Wilhelm I von Pressentin as a manor house was deliberately destroyed by a fire on May 5, 1945.

In the registration book of the Dobbertin monastery there are 27 entries of daughters of the families from 1741 to 1893 from Prestin, Stieten, Jesendorf and Rohlstorf for inclusion in the noble women's foundation there , including three entries by daughters of Rautter. Two Konventualinnen there is the coat of arms with attached cross of the Order and the alliance coat of arms on the nuns' gallery in the monastery church .

On May 8, 1833, the Prussian name and coat of arms were merged with those of Rautter . On October 10, 1890, Bernhard von Pressentin called Rautter adH Willkam (* 1860, † 1888) received another Prussian diploma that authorized the patrilineal hereditary use of the name and coat of arms of Podewils , linked to the possession of the former Podewils Fideikommiß Penken. In 1913 the title of count came under the name Count v. Rautter-Willkamm to the family, which was also inherited patrilinearly.

A family association has existed since October 10, 1885.
