Welcome to the Wagner family homepage

 

The Wagner family is a historically established family with Scandinavian roots and European influence. Its history is deeply rooted in Northern Europe and has been documented since the 17th century through continuous entries in various European registers of nobility.

 

In addition to the Scandinavian lines, an independent British line developed in the 18th and 19th centuries, contributing to the family's international network and significance. These connections reflect the historical exchange between Scandinavia and the United Kingdom and have shaped the family's social, cultural and economic position over generations.

 

Today, the Wagner family stands for the conscious cultivation of its historical heritage, for cultural and social commitment, and for a tradition-conscious yet future-oriented attitude in the European context.

The unique heritage

Explanation of feudal titles
The title of feudal baron belongs to the landed gentry and not to the high British peerage.
It is a title with legal and feudal rights. The British landed gentry is a social class that ranks above the bourgeoisie but below the British peerage and has no rights to a seat in the House of Lords.
The feudal nobility originated in the Middle Ages and derived its status from a fiefdom or land ownership.

Legal notice: The current Baron of Patrixbourne and Lord of Cotton Manor now only holds the titles of Lordship. He no longer has any property rights to the former lands and does not claim any land.
The purpose of this website is to preserve the title, history and tradition.
