Brahe (originally Bragde) is the name of a Scanian noble family that was influential in both Danish and Swedish history but has its family roots in Swedish origin.
The first member of the family is speculated to have been Verner Braghde from Halland.[1] Better documented is Peder Braghe to Gyllebo who appears in late 14th century records. He fathered two sons, Axel and Thorkild. What later became the Danish branch descended from Axel and what later became the Swedish, descended from Thorkild's daughter.[1]
Per Brahe was in 1561 granted dignity as a count by Eric XIV of Sweden and in 1620 was the family introduced on the Swedish Riddarhuset (House of Knights) as the first counts. The family died out in 1930, after which the foremost comital family became Lewenhaupt.
