    Where does the Name Hohensax comes from?

    K - From the single-edged Slash swords named Skramasax.
    E - From the noble family of the Barons of Sax.
    L - From Sax-Forstegg, a historic territory in the St. Gallen Rhine Valley.

    The Barons of Sax were a noble family from the Eastern and today one of the most aristocratic families of the Rhine Valley and the Grisons.

    They placed churchmen, Klostervögte, military leaders and even minstrel. 1633 died from the sex. Ancestral home of the family is the Hohensax Castle in the Rhine Valley, yet it goes back to the noble family of Torre from Bleniotal.

    Ulrich von Hohensax (1463-1538) was the first recorded General of Switzerland. He was considered a brilliant military leader and was technical innovations and in particular the timing very receptive.

    (From google translate on the hohensax.de website) so I am going with E
