REKINGEN
Canton : Aargau
Incorporated into : 2022 Zurzach
Official blazon
Geteilt von Gelb mit schwarzem R und von Blau mit halbem gelbem Mühlrad.
Origin/meaning
The arms were adopted on January 5, 1949.
The gold on top stands for the rich corn fields, the blue on the bottom half for the water (the village is situated on the Rhine river, and crossed by a another little river). The half wheel stands for the corn mill, which apparently was of importance in earlier days. The originals of such a mill can still be seen in the village in 'zur mittleren Mühle' (the middle mill), meaning that there were at least two more mills, an 'upper' and a 'lower' mill.
