coat of arms
On April 11, 1967, the community of Allendorf-Eder in what was then the district of Frankenberg was given a coat of arms with the following blazon by the Hessian Minister of the Interior : "In blue two turned away golden crescents over a six-pointed silver star." The coat of arms was awarded after approval Expert opinion from March 1, 1967 by Karl Ernst Demandt . This was based on research by the former director of the Marburg State Archives Carl Knetsch († 1938) and the archivist and librarian Hans Joachim von Brockhusen.
Originally the coat of arms was probably the family coat of arms of the noble family von Allendorf (Aldindorf, Altendorf), which died out in the 15th century, according to Knetsch and Brockhusen. The village chronicler Norbert Henkel criticizes the allegedly inadequate evidence for this assumption. Despite multiple documented mentioning of an aristocratic family named after the town of Allendorf, there is so far no evidence that today's municipal coat of arms served as their family coat of arms. Henkel cannot understand the documentary basis on which Knetsch linked the sketch of the coat of arms attached to his research with the family coat of arms of the von Allendorf family. The sketch of the coat of arms referred to here was probably based on the sandstone relief on the Battenfeld Church, which probably dates from the 15th century and which can still be seen there today. This is an alliance coat of arms that shows a coat of arms with turned away crescent moons over a star on the right and the coat of arms of the Biedenfeld family clearly identifiable on the left . According to heraldic interpretation, this alliance coat of arms illustrates that a woman of the von Allendorf family entered into a marriage with a man of the von Biedenfeld family.
It is possible that Knetsch drew the conclusion from a family tree of the von Biedenfeld family that he had created that it was the coat of arms of the von Allendorf family. Henkel concludes that today's municipal coat of arms cannot be traced back with certainty to a family coat of arms of the von Allendorf family, since their family coat of arms is not known or cannot be clearly assigned to them. It is therefore certain for him that the coat of arms belonged to a married wife of a man from the von Biedenfeld family. The identity and origin of this wife is still unclear. Based on the alliance coat of arms, it can be assumed that this couple may have been connected to the construction work on the Battenfeld church.
