ORTRAND
State : Brandenburg
District (Kreis) : Oberspreewald-Lausitz
Additions : 1960 Burkersdorf
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms date from the 13th century and show the lion of Meissen, as the city was a loan of the Margraves of Meissen in the 13th century.
The city sometimes uses the medieval great-arms, which show a helmet, crown and a crest of peacock feathers, all derived from the Margraves of Meissen (see below, the color of the tong and nails should be red though).
The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
