Wappen von Langewiesen/Arms (crest) of Langewiesen
Official blazon
German In Gold die heilige Margarethe mit silbernem Kleid, rotem Gewand und goldener Krone auf einem grünen Hügel stehend, in der Rechten einen schwarzen Kreuzstab haltend.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on September 30, 1993.

The arms are based on a 15th century seal of the city, which also showed a crowned female figure holding a staff. The figure most likely symbolises St. Margareth, the old patron saint of the local church. Later seals and images showed a male figure, but in 1993 the historical image was restored.
