thumb|upright=0.9|Coat-of-arms of the von Arenstorffs The Arenstorff family, also Arnstorff, is the name of a German noble family of ancient nobility originated from Uckermark, Brandenburg.

==History== The family appeared for the first time in the records on 29 September 1306 with Ludolf de Arndesdorp , with whom the main line also began. The clan obtained the naturalization into the nobility of Denmark on 24 April 1670 for Friedrich von Arensdorff, who later became the commanding General in the Royal Danish Army, councilor and the Governor of Schleswig and Holstein.
