The House of Wettin is one of the seven Great Families of Drambenburg, from the Drambenburgian province of Wettinburgen. Peter XXI von Wettin is the current head of the house and reigning Kaiser of Drambenburg. The house is ancient, existing since 1197 when Karl I von Wettin, the seventh son of duke Olfrik "Sturmmantel" Buchard, built the castle of Anhalruit in present-day Anhalruit, Wettenburgen, a Mark of the small kingdom of Saxonie, and was granted the title of Markgraf by the King in Lerbin. Ever since, the House of Wettin has been a protector of the realm.
