Schöning (noble family)
The von Schöning family is a very noble family that has lived in Pomerania since the 13th century .
history
The family first appears in a document at the beginning of the 13th century with Jordanus de Scheninge . The name is said to be derived from the town of Schöningen , east of Braunschweig . The family first appeared in Pomerania in the middle of the 13th century with the knight Conradus de Scheninghe . He is listed as a witness in two documents of Duke Barnim I , namely in the town charter for Stargard in Pomerania from 1243/1253 and in a deed of donation from 1250, with which the duke donated the church in Pyritz to the Wülfinghausen monastery . The family line begins in 1331 with Ulrich von Schöning .
The enfeoffment of the year 1520 by Duke Bogislaw X. of Pomerania shows the extensive property of the family. It was enfeoffed with Lübenow , Suckow an der Plöne , Ückerhof , Muscherin, Pumptow, Sallentin, Plönzig , Klemm, Sabitz, Krüssow, Rischow, Isynger and Brünecke as well as with the Bede (levy) from Danmitz. In the second half of the 18th century there was a further expansion and rounding of the property.
From 1783 to 1875 the family was the district administrator for the Pyritz district almost continuously .
In 1932 there was a foreclosure auction of the goods in Lübow , Suckow ad Plöne and Schöningsburg . Nevertheless, the family was initially able to retain most of their property. After 1945 the family's property was expropriated by the Polish state without compensation.
