|
RASTENBERG
State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Sömmerda
Verwaltungsgemeinschaft : Verwaltungsgemeinschaft Kölleda
Additions : 1994 Bachra
Origin/meaning
The arms show St. Wenesclaus, the patron saint of the diocese of Naumburg, to which the city historically belonged. The saint already appeared on the oldest known seal of the city, dating from 1460. As the town received city rights (and the right for its own seal) in 1378 it is expected that the arms date from that year as well.
 Seal from around 1900 |
 The arms in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
 local emergency money from 1918 |
