Coat of arms of the von Puttkamer family

Puttkamer is the name of an ancient noble family from Pomerania , which branched out into many lines. It provided numerous high Prussian officers and civil servants.

history

The name "Puttkamer" comes from the Slavic official title "putcumer" ( "Under eunuch" , Latin for "subcamerarius" Polish "podkomorzy") from. Official names are not only found in German, but occasionally also in foreign-language forms as family names for noble families.

The ancestor of this family is the 1257 to 1260 considered detectable "subdapifer Svecza de Slauna" (Svenzo of Schlawe) into Schlawe as Untertruchsess the Duke Swantopolk II. Of Pommerellen acting Palatine of Gdansk called "Swenzo". That would make the Puttkamer agnates of the Swenzonen . These were a local ministerial family (Polish: Święcowi ) who, after the Pomeranian dukes from the House of Samborids died out in 1294 in the turmoil of the Pomeranian succession dispute from 1296 to 1309, led the affairs of government and in fact ruled like sovereigns in the lands of Schlawe and Stolp until In 1308 the Teutonic Order took possession of most of the duchy.

The rear Pomeranian knight Peter Putcumer , who was counted among Swanto's descendants , was also written as Puthkamer and carried the Swenzonen coat of arms, appeared more frequently in the first decade of the 14th century; he was, as his name implied, ducal under chamberlain. In the following years the official title became a family name.

Wollin Manor , owned by the family from 1457 to 1878, ancestral home of all barons v. Puttkamer

In the first half of the 14th century, two large lines formed, which in turn divided into many individual branches. They were widespread in Pomerania for many centuries , but were also located in other areas of Germany . A branch of the line moved to Livonia in the 16th century and later to Poland . This branch was raised to the rank of count in 1802 under the name Werschowetz-Sekerka Puttkamer . Other branches of the family, which in the 17th century had adopted the “von” , which actually did not match the original official name, as a sign of aristocratic status, were given the title of baron at different times ; this was done partly by diploma, partly under customary law, as well as by an imperial award in 1682.

The family is divided into the houses Barnow, Norkallen, Schickerwitz and Wollin according to their previous possessions.

A sex association, founded in Köslin in 1859 , confirmed in Berlin in 1865 , holds family days in various places today.

Presentation right to the Prussian manor house

In 1895, Kaiser Wilhelm II granted the family the right to present to the Prussian mansion .

At the presentation of the Association of the Pomeranian Family von Puttkamer sat in the manor house:

coat of arms

The family coat of arms shows a blue shield with a red griffin with a gold crown, which ends in a forward curved silver sturgeon tail from the middle of the body. On the helmet with red-blue or red-silver-blue blankets are two outwardly swept silver hatchets ( battle axes ) on a rafter-like golden frame, the tip of which is studded with three ostrich feathers in the color sequence red - silver - blue.

This so - called fish griffin from the family coat of arms of the Puttkamer, which is also used in the city arms of Pomerania cities such B. occurs in the coat of arms of Rügenwalde or Zanow , was the original coat of arms of the Swenzonen .

The motto of the coat of arms is: Artificiosa non durant ( artificial things are not permanent ).

Family estates and manors

Treblin was a family seat from the 14th century until 1945, from 1315/1390 Groß Nossin (until 1840), from 1374 also Alt Kolziglow , in whose church Johanna von Puttkamer was married to Otto von Bismarck in 1847 . Lossin came to the Puttkamer in 1419, and Wollin in 1457 . Old possessions were also Kublitz (already in 1315 in the feudal possession of Kasimir Svenzo ), Krampe , Plassow , Glowitz (from 1475 to 1945), Jeseritz (from 1491) and Jerskewitz .

Schlackow had been in the family since the middle of the 17th century at the latest , from 1854 Krolow , which also included the Vietzke and Marsow farms , which had been Puttkamer fiefs since 1340 and which presumably belong to the Swenzonen , as well as Görshagen . The entire Schlackow estate was sold to Count Wilhelm von Zitzewitz in 1910 .

In the 17th century Grünwalde , the old Pansin order castle and the Niemietzke , Deutsch Karstnitz and petrol goods came to the Puttkamer, and in 1699 Barnow and Reinfeld . In the 18th century the Jassen family , in the 19th century Bartin , Karzin and Nippoglense , at times also bought Groß-Küssow .

Other possessions were Buckow , Görshagen , Kremerbruch , Lichtenberg (near Königsberg), Reddies , Versin , Viartlum , Waldau, Zettin .

The Himmighausen estate near Nieheim (East Westphalia) came about through Regelind Antonie von Puttkamer, b. Countess von Oeynhausen , into the family and is managed by her to this day.
