Coat of arms of the Count Basselet von La Rosée 1764

The Counts Basselet von La Rosée are a very old, originally Spanish, noble family who immigrated to Bavaria from the former Spanish Netherlands and were raised to the rank of count in 1764.

history

The Basselet von La Rosée family descends from the noble family of the Margraves de la Rosa, which originally flourished in Spain and later in what was then the Spanish Netherlands . Gomard Basselet de la Rosée (1649–1709) and Marie Therese de Septfontaine (1683–1755) had three sons: the brothers Theodor, Franz Servaz and Johann Caspar, who entered the military service of the Bavarian Elector Max Emanuel , came to Bavaria with him and were henceforth linked to the history of the Bavarian army. Subsequently they called themselves Basselet de la Rosée and were the founders of this branch of the family, which was raised to the rank of count in 1764. The family branched out in Bavaria and Austria and is still blooming in various branches today.

In the first and fourth silver field a square carbuncle stone divided by red and black obliquely to the left, with eight flowered red rays in the form of a common and St. Andrew's cross. (These figures placed in the cross are indicated as red rays in the Count's letter of 1764, but here they appear to be similar to goblets; in Siebmacher's large book of arms, Tab. 1, they are clover angels, the leaves of the rose in the center shield are white, and the The flagstick on the third helmet is silver.) In the second and third golden fields, two blue, undulating left sloping bars. The shield is covered by the count's crown, and on it are five open, crowned tournament helmets. The first carries a closed flight, facing the Saxons to the right, the right wing of which is made of silver, but the left wing is red; The second a tall, silver, red pagan (tournament) hat, the golden button of which is studded with 5 ostrich feathers, the middle of which is red, the right golden and the left blue, and in the middle of which the carbuncle stone with the 8 rays is repeated; and on the red helmet is a golden standard, on the golden flag of which the two undulating blue left sloping bars of the second and fifth fields appear again.
