DURMERSHEIM
State : Baden-Württemberg
District (Kreis) : Rastatt
Additions : 1972 Würmersheim
Official blazon
(de) In gespaltenem Schild vorne in Gold ein roter Schrägbalken, hinten in Blau ein goldener Krummstab mit nach links gekehrter Krümme.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1901, but are of much older origin.
The first time the combination of the arms of Baden and the crosier appears is on a seal of the village from 1555. In the 19th century seals of the town the Baden arms disappear, it was restored in 1901.
The origin of the crosier is not clear. Several monasteries as well as the Bishops of Speyer held lands and property in or around the town. The crosier has been explained as the crosier of either one of the abbotts or the bishop. The colours are the colours of Speyer.
Another explanation is that it is a pilgrim's staff, as many pilgrims travelled to the village of Bickesheim, which was combined with Durmersheim in the 14th century.
