The '''House of Hoensbroeck''' (in German: '''Hoensbroech''') is the name of an old aristocratic family with medieval origins in the town of [[Hoensbroek]] near [[Heerlen]] in [[Limburg (Netherlands)|Limburg]], [[Netherlands]]. The family is part of [[Dutch nobility|Dutch]] and [[German nobility]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
{{ill|Nicolaes Hoen|nl|Nicolaas I Hoen}} is the first known ancestor of the family; he was killed in the [[Battle of Baesweiler]] in 1371. During many centuries, the family owned and lived in [[Hoensbroek Castle]], which can still be visited today. They played an important social and political role in the region.<br />
<br />
In the Netherlands a comital cadet branch survives. In Germany, the elder line of the family continues to thrive as ''Marquis'' ([[Marquess]], from the [[Spanish Netherlands]], for the family's head) and ''Reichsgraf[in]'' ([[Imperial Count|Count]][ess], for each member of the family) '''von und zu Hoensbroech'''.<ref>''[[Nederland's Adelsboek]]'' 85 (1995), p. 186-199 and ''Genealogisches Handbuch des Adels'' 112 (1997), p. 163-187.</ref><br />
