Origin/meaning

There are no historical arms or seals known for the village. The first attempt to devise arms dates from 1930 when the local council wanted to adopt arms with a goose, as the old name of the village (until 1849) was Ganslosen (Gans=goose). In 1958 the State archives proposed a lily surrounded by four roses, but the council rejected this proposal. Instead the council adopted the above arms with a rosehip. The rosehip, Hagebutten, is a symbol for Auendorf as a 'Hägenmarkdorf'.
