TÖMMELSDORF
State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Saale-Orla Kreis
Official blazon
Geteilt von Blau über Silber; oben ein goldener Pflug; unten ein linksblickender blauer Karpfen.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on March 27, 1996.
The upper part shows a plough, for the agricultural character for the municipality. The base shows a carp, as already for many centuries fish farming plays a role in the local economy. This started in medieval times to provide fish for the monks in the local monasteries.
Literature : Ulle, 1997
