Der Bozner Stern

Es gibt Ereignisse, welche für einen selbst eigentlich ziemlich unbedeutsam sind, bar jeder Wichtigkeit, und trotzdem bleiben sie uns aus einem unbekannten Grund im Gedächtnis erhalten. So eine Episode war die in meiner späteren Jugend vernommene Nachricht – ich lebte noch in Bozen –, dass der Stadtrat das historische Stadtwappen mit dem sechszackigen Stern auch formell wieder eingeführt hatte (21.4.1988). Während der faschistischen Periode hatte nämlich der fünfzackige “Stellone d’Italia” den sechszackigen “Stella Maris”-Stern, ein Bezug auf die Stadtpatronin, der Hl. Maria, ersetzt. Ab da an habe ich eigenartigerweise immer wieder die mir neu im Stadtbild unterkommenden Wappen bewusst im Hinblick auf die Sternformen angeschaut.



Hinsichtlich der Geschichte des Wappens schon etwas informiert, hat der untenstehende in der Wochenzeitung FF gegen Ende des vorigen Jahres veröffentlichte Artikel mein Interesse geweckt. Am historischen Waaghaus ist man nämlich im Laufe der Renovierungen auf mehre fünfzackige Wappensterne gestoßen. Die Verwunderung war groß, die Untersuchungen haben aber ergeben, dass es Produktionen bzw. Adaptierungen aus der Zeit des Faschismus waren.

Dabei hat es anscheinend schon vor dem Machtwechsel in den 1920iger Jahren einen etwas ungenauen Umgang mit dem Bozner Wappenstern gegeben. Man schaue sich nur das Wappen unseres Josef von Kinsele-Eckberg an.

Auch auf dem Ex Libris von Anton Kinsele ist das Bozner Stadtwappen mit dem welschen fünfzackigen Stern abgebildet. Für den deutschnationalen Mitstreiter Julius Perathoners wohl eine besondere Ironie des Schicksals.

Beim Schreiben dieses Beitrages bin ich übrigens auf einen sehr ausführlichen Aufsatz von Gustav Pfeifer gestoßen. In “Kommunalheraldik und Diktatur. Am Beispiel des Stadtwappens von Bozen (1926–1943)” greift der Südtiroler Landesarchivar weit aus und lässt kaum Fragen offen. Und auch hier werden einige, durchaus prominentere, prefaschistische Fünfzack-Ausnahmen genannt.
