Former municipal coat of arms of Lustnau

His family lived in Lustnau and owned property there and in the vicinity (e.g. in Pfrondorf). It was a family of servants of the Count Palatine of Tübingen , who also held fiefs of the Counts of Hohenberg and the Lords of Stöffeln. They had a silver deer head with antlers in the blue field and were related to the Lords of Wildenau (near Rübgarten ), whose coat of arms also depicts a deer head. The deer head is still the local seal of Lustnau.

His successors were Kraft von Lustnau, a benefactor of the Hirsau monastery in the 12th century, Walther 1191 and Eberhard 1236. The latter two are named in Bebenhauser documents in which this sex occurs most frequently. Frequently recurring names from the end of the 13th century to the extinction of the sex at the end of the 15th century are Walther, Konrad, Johannes, Burkhard, Ludwig , Dietrich, Friedrich, Hans, Ostertag and Wilhelm.

Nicknames like Specht and Elsenbaum refer to the Schönbuch . The most significant nickname, however, is the dead . According to Martin Crusius , a noble von Lustnau had been carried out and buried as apparently dead, but came back alive during the night with the shroud folded, his wife hesitated to take him in, but they later fathered five children and they were called "the dead of Lustnau . "
