Origin/meaning

The district adopted arms in 1948, showing a weaver shuttle and wheat ears, symbols for industry and agriculture. Unfortunately I have no image of these.
The arms were abolished in 1952.

In 1992 the district adopted the above arms, which are a combination of the unique iron tower on the Löbauer Berg and the source of the river Spree.
