Ogiński family

The House of Ogiński, feminine form: Ogińska, plural: Ogińscy (Lithuanian: Oginskiai, Belarusian: Агінскія, Ahinskija) was a noble family of Grand Duchy of Lithuania and Poland (later, the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth), member of the Princely houses of Poland and Lithuania.

They were most likely of Rurikid stock, related to Chernihiv Knyaz family, and originated from the Smolensk region, incorporated into the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in approximately the fourteenth century.

Until the beginning of the nineteenth century, it was the largest public building in the city of Vitebsk.

On September 18, 1711 Bishop Bogusław Gosiewski sold the town of Maladzyechna to the Ogiński family.

The continued existence of the family is noted among charts of the Princely Houses of Poland.
