history

Groß-Rottmersleben was first mentioned in 964 as Retmersleve in a deed of donation from Margrave Gero when he bequeathed 20 Hufen land to the Gernrode monastery . In the land register of the monastery Werden on 10./11. Century Rottmersleben is mentioned as Radmaresluuu . The part of the name Rottmer comes from the personal name Radmar or Redmer , the ending -leben means: "legacy, inheritance".

The noble von Berwinkel family was well off in Rottmersleben for a long time. In 1292 they exchanged goods from the village with the Ilsenburg monastery , in 1302 they transferred goods in Rottmersleben to Bishop Hermann von Halberstadt and got them back as a fief in 1311 . In addition, the owners were those of Eilsleben and Damutz zu Alvensleben . The latter sold in 1439 to von Veltheim . Ludoph von Alvensleben zu Hundisburg was entrusted with the whole tithe by Archbishop Siegmund in 1565 . In 1625 and 1636 the plague raged in the village. In 1818 Groß-Rottmersleben had 66 houses, 436 inhabitants, an Evangelical Lutheran church with a school, two jugs and a water mill.

Klein-Rottmersleben belonged to the Counts of Walbeck as early as the 10th century . Thietmar von Merseburg inherited a farm in Klein-Rottmersleben in 991, which after his death came to the Merseburg Monastery. From this, the Magdeburg monasteries of Our Lady and Mountains acquired jurisdiction over individual farms in 1274/78, the Berge monastery also the patronage , the Althaldensleben monastery in 1264 the tithe from Halberstadt monastery and around 1300 the estate itself from those of Dreileben. The Bailiwick had the bishop 's castle at Alvensleben. The von Berwinkel family was enfeoffed with the now desolate village by the archbishop in 1446 and 1477 , most recently in 1480 by Halberstadt monastery; until the line died out in 1492. After that, the von Alvensleben were the main landowners in the desert village until the 17th century. Later rebuilt, there was a Vorwerk , two houses and 24 residents in Klein-Rottmersleben in 1818 .

On September 30, 1928, the Klein-Rottmersleben manor district was united with the rural community of Groß-Rottmersleben. A few days later, on October 17, 1928, the rural community of Groß-Rottmersleben was combined with part of the manor district of Klein-Santersleben to form a new rural community of Rottmersleben.

In 1925, robbery in Rottmersleben led to the Magdeburg judicial scandal , which was filmed in 1948 as Affaire Blum .

coat of arms

The coat of arms was approved on March 2, 1995 by the Magdeburg Regional Council.

Blazon : "Split of gold and red, a green oak branch with three golden acorns growing out of the gap in front, two crossed silver wedge-hooks behind."

The gold in the front half of the coat of arms is supposed to symbolize the fertile Bördeboden. It was he who, through the hard work of the Börd farmers, made the town rich and handsome until the beginning of the Second World War. This prosperity manifested itself in the noble "beet mansions" with their large farmyards and the associated stables and barns. However, before the beet and wheat cultivation increased in this region, the huge oak forests had to be cleared. This happened when the city of Magdeburg was founded by Otto I, and the oaks were then used for shipbuilding. The strong oak branch is intended to be a symbolic reminder of this. The red in the back half of the coat of arms symbolizes that Rottmersleben belongs to the Archdiocese of Magdeburg. The cleared forest floor was made arable with the wedge scraper and thus prepared for the beginning agriculture.

flag

The flag is striped green and yellow and has the coat of arms in the middle.

Coat of arms of Klein Rottmersleben

Coat of arms of Klein Rottmersleben

Blazon : “In gold on an oblique left green ground between a half green deciduous tree emerging from the right edge of the shield and a half conifer emerging from the left edge of the shield, a left-facing man dressed in red with a short-sleeved shirt, trousers and shoes as well as a hat, with a black lifting hoe the ground processing. "

The coat of arms of small Rottmersleben is the coat of arms of the non-independent hamlet that under the registry 29 ST March 25, 2014 in the German town Wappenrolle of HEROLD was registered and documented. It was donated by the local council of Rottmersleben, represented by the mayor Hans-Eike Weitz, in order to use it as a symbol of the local-local identity outside of official acts. The design was done by the municipal heraldist Jörg Mantzsch , who carried out the certification.

Derived from an image seal that the place kept for generations, and a coat of arms used in customary law, the donor asked for it to be adopted as a coat of arms, because the coat of arms was used as early as the 1000th anniversary in 1964 and has been in use since then can be seen today on a house wall in the village. The symbolism of the coat of arms refers to the etymology of the name, to the geographical peculiarity of a steep slope or rise as well as to the tree population. Based on these facts, the central figure of the coat of arms is a man who works the ground with a hoe between two trees (natural deciduous tree and conifer). It stands (taking into account the special geography) on a sloping left shield base.

The colors of the place are: green-yellow
