Origin/meaning
Ballenberg was a possession of the Counts of Eberstein since 1250. They made King Albrecht I grant the city rights in 1306. In 1359 the city was sold to the Archbishops of Mainz, and belonged to the State of Mainz until 1803.
The oldest seal is known since 1503, but it is likely that the city used seals prior to that date. The seal shows, as most other cities in the State of Mainz, the wheel of Mainz.
The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
