Krummensee (noble family)
The von Krummensee (Grummensche) were an old, originally Meissen noble family .
origin
The von Krummensee did not belong to the retinue of the Brandenburg margraves , but had probably come to the Barnim with the Meissen margraves . Their headquarters, the village of Krummensee near Altlandsberg, is located in the eastern part of the Barnim. It is believed that they named Krummensee here from the in Teltow , just south of King Wusterhausen , located Krummensee transferred. Both villages are located in the area that the Margrave of Meißen conquered towards the end of the 12th century.
The Krummensee were largely related to the Scandinavian royal family and the north German dynasty of the Glücksburg family.

Ownership was confirmed in 1416 and 1451, and finally Rosenthal was sold in 1547 or 1557. The Krummensee is now mentioned in a document for the first time in the Landbuch der Mark Brandenburg . In 1409 they took possession of the town of Altlandsberg. In 1412 the Provost Marquard von Krummensee died and was buried in the Brandenburg Cathedral .
