Obertsrot

History

The first mention of Obertsrot is in a document from 1377, held in the State Archives in Karlsruhe. On April 1, 1970, Obertsrot merged with Hilpertsau to form the Obertsrot community, which was then incorporated into the town of Gernsbach on July 1, 1974. The Obertsrot coat of arms depicts two diagonally crossed pike poles with their tips turned outwards, with three red roses in between them. This design is ringed by a blue knotted rope.
