coat of arms
Blazon : “In the red head of the shield a black and silver carved cross. In the upper left part of the shield a silver lion head and in the lower right part of the shield a silver oak leaf. " | |
Founding of the coat of arms: Until 1290, the Nürburg counts, as rulers, had sovereignty over the village. The lion head depicted in the coat of arms is therefore the silver lion of the Counts of Nürburg. After that, from 1356 onwards, it was the Archbishops of Cologne who held the electoral dignity. These created the same-named Electoral Cologne Office from the Nürburg County. For this, the Rodderers also performed their haulage services and paid taxes from the income from the logging. Within the office, Rodder belonged to the Reifferscheid mayor's office. The cross in the coat of arms is therefore the black cross of the Electorate of Cologne. When the French revolutionary troops marched in, Kurköln was abolished. Rodder now belonged to the Mairie (mayor's office) Adenau, in the arrondissement of Bonn, Rhine-Moselle department of Koblenz. In addition to agriculture, the forest has always been the economic basis of the village. The oak, from the wood of which the half-timbered houses were built that have survived the centuries, deserves a special mention. |
