This is a compilation I have been working on for many years. Each
of these Coats of Arms (Wappen in
German) was awarded to an individual... not a family. None of our
known Enderlin relatives were members of the nobility, but there were
other
families in Baden, Prussia, Alsace and Switzerland who were.
There are undoubtedly other Enderlin Coats of Arms out there. As
I find them, I will add them to this site. -- Dean Enderlin

blue and yellow.) Source:
(Page 298 of an uncited German heraldry reference, Hansjoerg Enderlin
research).
Crest:(Arms of the shield)
Motto:None
Notes:This is an example of the Arms of
the Enderlin/Enderli (von Montzwick) family who lived in Maienfield
(Mayenfeld), Canton Graubünden, Switzerland in the 16th and 17th
Centuries. This coat of arms was awarded by Archduke Maximillian
of Tirol in Innsbruck on 25 April 1609. It was received by the
brothers Ulrich and Andreas Enderli and their cousins Andreas, Johannes
and Türing (Thüring) Enderli von Montzwick, whose ancestors
(the Landeshauptmman-, Stadtvogt-, and Potesten-Amt of Mayenfeld) had
worn it. Note: Andreas Enderlin (the cousin named above) was
“Podesta” (mayor) of Tirano in northern Italy. He was shot in the
hostelry of Tirano, mutilated and thrown into the Adda River during the
Valtellina Massacre of 18-19 July 1620.

Maienfeld, Switzerland. A number of their family members went to
Holland, where they held important titles.
