( R e d i r e c t e d f r o m C h o i s e u l ( s u r n a m e ) ) Coat of arms of Choiseul-Praslin family
The House of Choiseul is a French noble family of chivalric extraction, first mentioned in 1060. Originally from Champagne , its cradle is the village of Choiseul (in the modern day Haute-Marne department ). An illustrious house, its members held prominent political, ecclesiastical and military positions within the Kingdom of France . The Choiseul family is one of the oldest French families still in existence, having been identified among the families surviving into the 21st century who have been able to prove their filiation in the male line, both natural and legitimate, without interruption back to a first ancestor attested by a deed dating from before 1250.
