Elsoff Coat of Arms

Shield Azure a crozier Or in bend superimposing a sword Athergent in bend sinister.
Meaning:
There are known four different 17th and 18th century seals of Elsoff. The oldest is from the first quarter of the 17th century. All display the same pattern, a bishop holding a crozier and standing behind two small shields with a lion. The two shields are most likely the coats of arms of Nassau, as in two seals there are indications of the billets, which are part of the Nassau arms, and of Hessen. Elsoff became a possession of the Counts of Nassau in 1337 and in 1479 of the Princes of Hessen. From 1557-1803 it was a condominion of both, which explains the two shields. On two seals the bishop is also holding a sword. This may be an indication that the bishop may represent both patron saints of the local parish church with St.Peter as bishop represented by the crozier and St. Paul represented by the sword, which is his attribute. In 1956 new arms were designed with only the crozier and sword as representations of the two saints in the main colours of Nassau and Hessen.
