Baron of Berenberg-Gossler

Coat of arms of the Barons of Berenberg-Gossler

Baron of Berenberg-Gossler (German: Freiherr von Berenberg-Gossler) is a title in the German nobility, specifically the nobility of the Kingdom of Prussia, created in 1910 for banker Johann von Berenberg-Gossler of the Hamburg Hanseatic Berenberg-Gossler family. The title is held by one person at a time and is tied to an entailed estate (Fideikommiss), Gut Niendorf. For this reason, it is not always inherited by the eldest son. The title is currently (since 1997) held by humanitarian Cornelius von Berenberg-Gossler.^[1] The first three title holders were all heads of Berenberg Bank.
