GEISLEDEN
State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Eichsfeld
Official blazon
In Rot mit silbernen Wellenflanken eine golden bekleidete Frau in Eichsfelder Tracht auf einem silbernen Schemel sitzend mit einem silbernen Spinnrocken und silberner Handspindel.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 6, 1997.
The arms show a woman spinning wool. This symbol was taken from the older seal of the municipality. Wool spinning and textile industries have played a major role in the local history.
The two wavy sides of the arms are a canting symbol. The name is derived from the old German word Geisla, meaning an area situated along water. The waves also symbolise the Geislede stream that runs through the village.
The silver and red colours are derived from the arms of the State of Mainz, to which the area historically belonged.
