|
SCHACHTERBICH
State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Eichsfeld
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on December 27, 1995.
The name probably is derived from Schilfrohrbach, or reed-stream, which is symbolised by the wavy division (Bach, stream), the two reeds (Rohr, or Schilfrohr) and the fish. The whole also symbolises the historical marshes around the village.
The mitre symbolises St. Magnus, the patron saint of the village.
