Coat of arms of those from Ramung to Daspach

The lords of Rammung , also written Ramung or Rammungen, were a German noble family from the Kraichgau . It is not to be confused with the Upper Bavarian gender of the von Ramung (or Romung) zu Rameck, who had a different coat of arms.

Daisbach

Matthias von Rammung (1417–1478) was Bishop of Speyer. His brother Hans von Rammung († 1469) held the Daisbach castle loan . He was married to Irmel von Wettelberg for the second time. This marriage came from his son Matthias. After the early death of Hans von Rammung, Hans von Gemmingen, called Giener , who was married to a sister of the bishop, was appointed guardian of the children of Hans von Rammung. Albrecht V. Göler von Ravensburg (1444–1503) married Kunigunde von Rammung, the heiress of Daisbach, in 1472 . After her death in 1474 he married a Katharina von Rammung. In 1478 Matthias von Rammung, nephew of the Speyer bishop of the same name, received his father's castle loan from his uncle in Landau, which was renewed in 1494 by the Roman-German King Maximilian I. Around 1480 he married Ursula von Schülmitz († 1502). The marriage had three daughters and the son Siegfried. In 1501 Matthias von Rammung founded the parish in Daisbach. In 1503 he went to the Bavarian-Palatinate War of Succession with Elector Philipp. He died in 1506 and was buried at the side of his wife in the Daisbach church. Again a Hans von Gemmingen, called Giener, was appointed guardian. Son Siegfried embarked on a spiritual career and died as the last of the family in 1560 as Commander and governor of the Order of St. John in Heitersheim.

Daudenzell

After a letter of purchase from 1468, Wiprecht von Helmstatt sold the village of Dudenzelle uf dem Kreychgaue to the future Mr. Diethern Rammung , provost in Wimpfen , and his heirs.

In the second marriage, Albrecht V. Göler von Ravensburg married Katharina von Rammung in 1474 and after the death of his wife in 1497 came into the possession of Daudenzell .

coat of arms

The coat of arms, split by blue and silver, shows a split point of mistaken tincture. A growing silver ram on the helmet with blue-silver helmet covers. The preserved stones of Bishop Matthias von Rammung's coat of arms all show his family coat of arms, placed in the middle on the Speyer diocese coat of arms, which consists of a silver cross on a blue background.
