GRÄFINAU-ANGSTEDT

State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Ilm-Kreis
Incorporated into : 1994 Wolfsberg

Grafinau.jpg

Official blason:
Von Blau über Rot geteilt mit einem silbernen Wellenbalken, oben schwebend das Brustbild eines goldenen Engels, unten schwebend ein goldener Krebs.

Origin/meaning :
The arms were officially granted on May 25, 1993.

The base shows a lobster, taken from the seal of Gräfinau from 1685, and symbolises the former importance of fishing in the Ilm river, shown as a wavy bar. The angel is a canting element for Angstedt (the name can be translated as place of angels).

Literature : Ulle, 1997
