House of Langenstein
The House of Langenstein is an extinct noble family that came from Langenstein Castle in Melchnau in the Canton of Bern in Switzerland. Only two generations of the family are known. In 1194 the family helped found the Cisterian St. Urban's Abbey. The family went extinct in the early 13th century, though much of the their land was inherited by the Grünenbergs.
==History==
The House of Langenstein had their family seat on the Grünenberg Castle hill above the village of Melchnau. Archeological digs on the site have found evidence of a 10th or 11th century wooden castle, below later stone castles. This wooden castle was the first High Medieval fortification on the hill.〔Jufer 1999: pg. 55 (the site was originally dated from the 9th or 10th century, though this was later found to be too early).〕 The name of the family likely came from the long stony crest of the hill and may have originally been ''langer Stein'' or long stone in English.
The family owned land in the Rot (a tributary of the Murg river) and Langete river valleys. The family may have settled in the valley to begin colonizing the empty forest between the County of Burgundy in the west and the Alamannia territories in the east.〔Jufer 1999: pg. 41.〕
The first time the Langenstein family appears, is in an unconfirmed record from 1148, when they supposedly founded an Augustinian Canons Regular.〔Haeberle 1964: p.32〕
