Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Germany - Deutsche Wappen (Gemeindewappen/Kreiswappen) |

RUHLAND
State : Brandenburg
District (Kreis) : Oberspreewald-Lausitz (until 1993 Senftenberg)
Amt : Amt Ruhland
Official blazon
In Gold ein schwarzer doppelköpfiger Adler mit roter Zunge und Bewehrung, über ihm schwebend eine rotgefütterte goldene Krone.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on November 10, 1992.
The arms were first used around 1600, when the arms appear on the local seal. All later seals and images all show the same composition.
The meaning of the arms is not known. It looks as the Imperial Eagle, but the city never had a status of Imperial City. Probably the city simply adopted the symbol, to give a more important impression.

 The arms in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
