Johannes "Hannes" von Lahnstein II (formerly known as Hannes von Anstetten) is a fictional character on German soap opera Verbotene Liebe (Forbidden Love). He is the son of Tanja von Anstetten and Ansgar von Lahnstein. The character was played by child actors Daniel and Simon Kühn from 20 March 2006 to 24 November 2008. Hannes was recast with child actor Jonas Enderer, who debuted in the role on 28 November 2008. He was last seen in June 2011 and then recast with Melvin-Maxmilian Eisenstein, who debuted on 21 December 2011.
In early 2006, Tanja returns with her son, Hannes, and wants to start a family together with Ansgar. But he has other plans. At first, he did not accept his son and wants have nothing to do with him or Tanja. But the interest that Hannes is the first child of a new Lahnstein generation makes Ansgar believe, that his son could be used to bring him and his father Johannes closer and that that would him bring back into the family business. After a while, Ansgar really loves Hannes as his son and fights with Tanja over custody. Tanja, as always, doesn't want it to be fate and as her sister Meike Breuer comes to town, she wants her as a nanny for Hannes. But Meike falls in love with Ansgar. He finds out, that Meike is Tanja's sister and uses her to get custody. Later, Ansgar marries Nathalie Käppler and she is the new mom for Hannes. But Tanja wouldn't let her and kidnaps her son and makes Nathalie and Ansgar believe, that Nathalie had caused Hannes' death. After Tanja fakes her own death too, she leaves Düsseldorf with the help of Adrian Degenhardt.
They return in December 2007, when Hannes was kidnapped to bring him back to his father Ansgar. Tanja soon discovers that Adrian was behind that, after Sebastian von Lahnstein, Ansgar's cousin, found out the child was still alive. Tanja only wants to come back to take Hannes again from his father, but her plan doesn't work and instead she soon has problems with the police responsible for kidnapping her own son and faking her death. But Tanja manages to blackmail Ansgar with one of his own intrigues and doesn't need go to prison after he predicates that Tanja had no other choice. Then Ansgar and Tanja fight for custody of Hannes again. But none of them wins, when Carla, Ansgar's sister, becomes the child's legal guardian thanks to Lydia Brandner, who's working for the Children's and Young People's Affairs. He grows up with his cousin Sophia now. Tanja tries to win her son back by trying to bring Ansgar to marry her, so they can win back custody of their son together and can enjoy the millions of the Lahnstein assets, because of a faked last will of Johannes, Hannes is the heir. There is only one problem left for Tanja: Ansgar's has fallen in love with his wife Nathalie. Tanja gets Nathalie behind bars with a scheme and she and Ansgar were married in August 2008. Shortly after, Tanja and Ansgar win the custody back as planned. But Ansgar opens up to Carla about the fake will to protect the family assets from Tanja. He also makes it clear that he still loves Nathalie and has an open affair with her.
