Object history

Deutsch: Der Name der Gemeinde lautet offiziell nur "Rohrdorf". Das Rohr ist redend und spielt auf die Wiesen rund um das Dorf an. Die Raute erinnert an das Geschlecht von Rohrdorf, Kommissare der Grafen von Falkenstein und seit dem 14. Jahrhundert in Urkunden des Klosters Rott erwähnt. Das Beil stammt aus dem Familienwappen der Pschachel, den Erben der Familie Rohrdorf. Beide Geschlechter besaßen bis ins 16. Jahrhundert die Güter Unterrohrdorf und Oberrohrdorf.

English: The name of the municipality officially is just Rohrdorf. The epithet usually is added as a distinguishing mark. The reeds (German: Rohr) are canting and alluding to the meadows around the village. The lozenge is reminding on the Rohrdorf kin, commissionaires of the Counts of Falkenstein and mentioned since the 14th century in deeds of the Rott Abbey. The axe is taken from the family arms of the Pschachel kin, the successors of the Rohrdorf family. Both kins owned the estates of Unterrohrdorf and Oberrohrdorf until the 16th century.
