The Tersmeden family, originally tor Smede, is a Swedish noble family of German descent, originally from Stade, Lower Saxony that rose to prominence in the 15th-century with Thomas tor Smede, founder of one of the most prominent trading companies in northern Germany. The family was elevated to noble rank in the Kingdom of Sweden in 1751, and got introduced at the House of Nobility in 1752. The Tersmeden family consists of several branches of different noble ranks.
During the 19th century, the Tersmeden family possessed several ironworks, where they made a fortune. The family's wealth declined over the 20th century, once they had wound up their business interests in ironworks.
