Posern (with stress on the second syllable), also Poserne, Pozerne, Buzerne, Puserne and Boszern, is an old Upper Saxon-Meissen noble family that has spread widely and still exists.

It should not be confused with the Silesian noble family Poser, although it is assumed that these also came from the Saxon-Thuringian area.
The ancestral home of the family is today's Poserna district of the town of Lützen in Saxony-Anhalt. In 1161 this place was first mentioned as Posidrin.

Conradus de Poserne was first documented as a representative of the family in 1283[1]. The lineage of those from Posern begins in 1269 with Ludolfus de Buzernen, miles.

In 1328, a Heinrich von Puzerne, otherwise known as Manegolt, appeared as a witness in a document from Landgrave Friedrich von Thuringia.
Manor Obernessa: Family property since the Middle Ages until the end of the 17th century.
Rittergut Waltersdorf: Owned by the family from 1611, expropriated in 1945 as a result of the land reform.
Baroque Rammenau Castle: In 1879, the royal Saxon chamberlain and abbot in Marienstern, Hans Curt Christoph Ernst von Posern, acquired the Rammenau estate from the von Hoffmannsegg family. He became known through the ballad The Green Posern by Börries von Münchhausen (1920).[2] His widow, nee Freiin von Humboldt (1853-1914), married the cavalry general Eugen von Kirchbach. After her death, her daughter Margarete Gisela Gabriele Alexandra von Helldorff, née von Posern, took over Rammenau Castle.
