Jeszenszky or Jesenský (also Jessensky, Jessinsky, Jessensky de Gross Jessen) is the name of two old noble families in the Kingdom of Hungary. They have mutual name but their origins are different.
The first known ancestor of the Kisjeszen (Minor Jeszen) branch was András Temérdek who received lands in Túróc (Template:Lang-sk) county from king Ladislaus IV of Hungary in the 13th century. The first known member of the Nagyjeszen (Major Jeszen) branch was called Mágya. The families introduced their new surname after the name of a village "Jeszent". The word jesen means "autumn" in several Slavic languages.
Ladislaus Jesenský died in 1526 during the catastrophic Battle of Mohács. Subsequently, all Jesenský property was confiscated by the advancing Osmans, so brothers Melchior, Lorenz and Balthasar Jesenský moved to Silesia (then part of the Crown of Bohemia) and lived in Wrocław and Świdnica from 1541 onward. Balthasar's son was Ján Jesenský, known as Jan Jesenius, famous scientist and politician who lived and died in Prague, Bohemia.
Branches of family are still living in Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary and the United States.
Important family members:
- Jan Jesenius (1566–1621), Slovak physician, philosopher and politician, rector of Charles University in Prague
- Růžena Jesenská (1863–1940), Czech novelist
- Jan Jesenský (1870–1947), Czech scientist, professor of Charles University
- Janko Jesenský (1874–1945), Slovak poet, prose writer and translator
- Milena Jesenská (1896–1944), Czech journalist and translator, friend of Franz Kafka
- Jan Jesenský, Jr. (1904–1942), Czech scientist, assistant professor of Charles University
