ADELHAUSEN
State : Baden-Württemberg
District (Kreis) : Lörrach
Incorporated into : 1974 Rheinfelden
Origin/meaning :
The arms were granted in 1900.
The village of Adelhausen was an Austrian possession until the early 19th century. The historical seals thus used the Austrian Imperial eagle with on a small breastshield the letter A. These seals were still used during the 19th century. In 1900 the State Archives advised to replace the Austrian eagle with a more neutral eagle.
