Object history
Deutsch: Das Wappen wurde durch König Ludwig I. von Bayern am 30.01.1844 verliehen. Es entstammt einem Stadtsiegel aus dem Jahre 1335. Es zeigte einen gespaltenen Schild mit dem Zeichen der Familie der Raufgrafen umgeben von drei Roggenähren, welche redend für den Ort standen (Rocken- ist abgeleitet von "Roggen"). Die Raugrafen erwirkten 1332 die Stadtrechte für Rockenhausen. Zu Beginn des 15. Jahrhunderts wurde in die Schildhälften je eine Ähre gesetzt; um 1600 kam ein Grasboden hinzu. Bei der Neuverleihung 1844 war das alte Siegelbild nicht mehr genau bekannt, so dass aus der Spaltlinie eine dritte Roggenähre entstand.
English: The arms were granted on January 30, 1844. Rockenhausen got city rights in 1332 by the Raugraves, who also gave the city its name. The oldest seal dates from 1335 and shows the arms of the counts, surrounded by ears of rye. The rye is a canting symbol (Rocken- derived from "Roggen"). In the 15th century the seals showed a paled shield with a single ear in each field. In 1600 the ears were planted on a piece of grass. The present arms were granted in 1844 and a third ear was added. It is likely that the old worn seal was not quite clear, and that the partition line was seen as the third ear.
