Additions : 1919 Mehlis, Zella Sankt Blasii
Official blazon
(de) Geviert von Rot und Blau; in 1 ein wachsender nimbierter goldhaariger Bischof in rotem Messgewand mit silbernem Pallium, darauf ein schwarzes Kreuz, und rotem Mantel mit rot-silberner Mitra, in der rechten Hand einen goldenen Bischofsstab und in der linken zwei gekreuzte brennende goldene Kerzen, in 2 eine schräg rechts gelegte gespannte silberne Armbrust, in 3 ein gekreuztes silbernes Paar Schlägel und Eisen, in 4 eine wachsende nimbierte goldhaarige rotgekleidete Heilige mit weißem Gürtel, vor der Brust in beiden nach oben gerichteten Händen einen goldenen Deckelkelch haltend.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1990, but have been used before.
The two saints are the patron saints of Zella (St. Blasius) and Mehlis (St. Maria Magdalena). The tools indicate the importance of iron-mining in the area, as well as the traditional arms manufacturing.
The old arms of Zella, which were not officially granted, showed St. Blasius with a small shield with mining tools.
