The Lalaing family is an ancient aristocratic family from the south of Flanders (Lallaing is currently in France), whose members played an important role in the history of the County of Hainaut and of the Netherlands. The current family belongs to the Belgian nobility.
History
The first known ancestor is Gerard de Forest who lived in the 11th century. Thanks to the wedding of Philipp of Lalaing, 2nd Count of Hoogstraten to Anne Countess of Renneberg, daughter of William, count of Rennenberg and Anne of Culemborg, their descendants inherited multiple important lands and titles.Trophées tant sacrés que profanes du duché de Brabant, Volume 2 / Christophe Butkens p. 150
