The von Minutoli family is a German noble family, originally came from Lucca or Naples and spread over into Switzerland during the 17th century. Members of the family were awarded with the title of Freiherr and held significant military positions within the Kingdom of Prussia.[1][2] Over the time, two branches of the family were formed, the Minutoli line and the line of Minutoli-Wolbeck, formed by legitimate male-line descendants of Alexander von Minutoli (1806-1887), son of Heinrich Menu von Minutoli and his uncle, Julius Rudolph Ottomar Freiherr von Minutoli.
