Putyatin (family)

The Putyatin family traces its origins to the 9th century in Russia, securing a distinguished position within the annals of Russian nobility.

The family lineage can be more precisely traced to the 14th century, marking the establishment of the Russian Princely House of Putyatin.

The early history of the Putyatin family is intricately linked with the Vladimir-Suzdal Principality and subsequently the Grand Duchy of Moscow.

As boyars, military leaders, and administrators, the Putyatins played pivotal roles in the political and social spheres of Russian life.

Throughout the 15th and 16th centuries, members of the House of Putyatin continued to play influential roles in the Muscovite government, military, and church.
