coat of arms

Blazon : Divided into black and silver five times obliquely to the left, so that the upper black and lower silver part is larger than the middle parts.

An almost identical coat of arms, in the left upper corner accompanied by a silver, six-pointed star, led the Döring von Elmshausen . The Döring and the Weitershausen are probably related; they shared the church patronage in Elnhausen and Buchenau for a long time . Half of the bailiwick over the community of Weitershausen was (1419, 1481) a Fulda fiefdom of the Döring.

coat of arms

This branch of the Weitershausen family had two crossed lily wands (lily scepter) in the coat of arms. The seal of Gumpert von Weitershausen (Witirshusen) shows two upward sloping bars ending in half wall anchors.

Calf from Weitershausen

It is not clear whether the von Weitershausen calves are related to the Weitershausen family, but they sometimes used the name "von Weitershausen" without the addition "Kalb". The coat of arms is very similar or identical to that of Weitershausen with the crossed lily staffs. The Kalb von Weitershausen owned a castle seat in Marburg, the later so-called " Rabenauer Hof " (destroyed in 1647) at Ritterstraße 20 near the Kalbstor , which the family was responsible for guarding.

coat of arms

The shield-shaped seal of Ludwig Kalb von Weitershausen shows a pair of scissors as a coat of arms in 1306. The round seal of the knight Heinrich Kalp 1327 shows in the shield - graphically very similar - two lily rods placed diagonally on top of each other. The seal of the castle man Burchardus dictus (= called) Kalp zu Gießen shows in 1330 a bull's head turned towards the viewer.

Kalf von Weitershausen called Schubel

The Weitershausen called Schubel were an illegitimate branch line of the Schutzbar called Milchling . It is unclear whether there is a family relationship with the Weitershausen family, but the name “Weitershausen” was sometimes used without the addition “Schubel”. The same coat of arms seems to have been used by the Schubel and the Kalb von Weitershausen.
