Official blazon

Im von Grün und Gold geteilten Wappen ist oben ein silberner Pflug und unten ein schwarzes achtspeichiges Rad.

Origin/meaning

The upper half shows a special type of plough, developed by Eduard Dörge, who was born in the town. The lower half shows a drive-wheel, the predecessor for many industrial wheels. It was invented in Braunsdorf by Michael Kassler in the late 17th century. He forgot to patent his invention, which was patented one century later. The green colour symbolises the Geisetal valley. The gold stands for the riches obtained after the lignite mining in the valley.
