Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Germany - Deutsche Wappen (Gemeindewappen/Kreiswappen) |
ELLERSLEBEN
State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Sömmerda
Origin/meaning
As far as I know these arms have not yet officially been granted, but are in use by the municipality for some years.
The tree is a canting element, an alder (Erle in German) for the first part of the name. The bend symbolises a border-pole. The village historically was on the border between Sachsen (later Sachsen-Weimar) and the State of Mainz (later Prussia).
