Vlašim family

Z Vlašimi is a Bohemian family name of several ancient knights and nobles, with history going back to the end of the 13th Century. Over time, it divided into family lines: Vlašimskou, Jankovskou, Jenšteinskou, Nemyčevsi and Úsovskou.

The family coat of arms features the sable eagle of house of Vlastislaviců on a shield and, in the middle of 14th century, two gules vulture heads on silver shield. In 1615, the two were combined into the coat of arms of Jankovský z Vlašimi.
