Bose

Machine-translated from the German article

The von Bose family is an old Saxon noble family originating from the Merseburg Collegiate Chapter, which was established in Saxony, Prussia, Alsace, Hamburg, the Netherlands, Russia and North America. There are several legends about the origin of the family. One holds that its original ancestral seat was the Bösenburg near Rottelsdorf in the later County of Mansfeld, where the legendary Thuringian king Bisino is said to have held a castle on the Burgberg.
