history

origin

Seal of Henricus Ribe from 1237
Galenbeck Castle , family-owned from 1391 to 1945
Galenbeck Manor

The family is probably of Wendish origin and came from Lauenburg . The family was first mentioned in a document on December 26th, 1237 with Henricus Ribe , who as a witness sealed the confirmation of the Rehna monastery by Bishop Ludolf von Ratzeburg . According to names, coats of arms and traditions, it can be assumed that the von Riben are of noble Wendish origin, as well as that they sat on Gaslenbeck as early as 1170. In 1171 Ribe is mentioned as a comrade from the Broda monastery on Galenbeck and in 1237 Heinrich Ribe as a knight of Jatzke. The uninterrupted line of the family begins 1383–1408 with Vicco von Rieben at Galenbeck Castle . As the ducal council of Mecklenburg in 1408 he was a witness for a foundation of the dukes of Mecklenburg because of the victory over Brandenburg in 1399.

Expansion and possessions

After Kneschke , Hermann Rybe, who was Duke Albert's guardian in 1289, also belonged to the family .

In 1523 the gentlemen von Rieben were among the signatories of the Union of Estates . Around 1545 Achim von Rieben was a royal Brunswick councilor. Georg von Rieben served among the German troops in the Navarre Religious War ; he was slain by farmers in Switzerland in 1587 . In 1712, Johann Carl von Rieben was a royal Prussian sergeant in the Grenadier Guard. Around 1800 a von Rieben lived as a royal forester in Berlin and in 1806 a Herr von Rieben was a postmaster in Iserlohn .

Friedrich von Rieben, Mr. Close to the former district Wohlau , 1837 was the country elder . His brother Adolph von Rieben owned the Kutscheborwitz estate near Wohlau . At the same time, Landdrost von Rieben was master of Galenbeck.

Galenbeck was one of the oldest Riebenschen possessions. It was owned by the family from 1170 to 1945. The castle built there dates from the 13th century, but was destroyed by Brandenburg troops in 1453. From the castle, the ruins of the keep from the 15th century and an angular residential tower from the second half of the 13th century are still preserved. The manor house, a half-timbered building , was built in 1712 by the von Rieben family as a stately home. In 1521, relatives of Cosa and Brohm (today both districts of Friedland ) were able to purchase. In the Mark Brandenburg the family owned in 1565 zu Lauenhagen and 1588 zu Neuensund . In the middle of the 19th century, Helmut von Rieben, Major, was out of service , Herr auf Schildberg in the district of Soldin and Lauenhagen in the district of Prenzlau . Wilhelm Bernhard Adolph von Rieben, Major out of service, was the master of Kadlewe and Kutscheborwitz in the Wohlau district. A gentleman from Rieben was in Schlaube in the Guhrau district , Bernhard von Rieben zu Schliesen and Brenowitz in the Wohlau district. The widow Rieben, born of Tschammer, was the owner of the goods Hochbeltsch district Guhrau, and a woman of Rieben was the owner of Kölmergutes Schrotz in district German crown .

In the registration book of the Dobbertin monastery there are 14 entries by daughters of the von Rieben families from Brohm, Rey, Schönhausen, Klein Lunow and Kutscheborwitz from the years 1706-1832 for inclusion in the noble women's monastery there . The tombstone of Konventualin No. 1275 Minna von Rieben still stands in the Dobbertin monastery cemetery .
