Coat of arms of those of Wensin

Wensin ( also: Wenzyn ) was the name of an old Holstein noble family that was also based in the Seestermüher - and Krempermarsch . The coat of arms was a shield with a white / silver lance tip standing upright or horizontally to the right, symbolizing the holy lance , in the red field, occasionally also with the opposite color.

history

The Wensin were a knightly noble family and appeared several times in documents from the Schauenburg sovereigns. They were closely related to the neighboring knights of Barmstede , the knights of Raboisen and those of Wedel . In 1305 Knight Berthold von Wensien appeared in a document. The knights Berthold and Detlev von Wensin appeared again and again in numerous documents from the 14th century. In another, Count Otto acquired wood from the squire Ludeke von Wensin in the parish of Barmstedt . Around 1367 Otto von Wensin bought the rest of the goods of the Knights of Raboisen, after they had pledged them to the Knights of Krummendiek, who owned goods in Elmshorn. The resulting dispute was settled by an arbitration award in 1368. In 1404 a Lüdertin von Wensin also appeared in a document. In 1542 monastery provost Clement von der Wisch bought Hof Raboise for the monastery Uetersen , the former seat of the knights of Raboisen in Raa from Otto von Wensin. The Wensin estate was sold to the von Buchwaldt family of Holstein aristocrats in 1421. The family probably died out in the 17th century.
