VELDEN AM WÖRTHER SEE

State : Kärnten
District : Villach-Land
Additions : 1973 Augsdorf, Köstenberg

Coat of arms (crest) of Velden am Wörther See

Official blazon

Ein von Rot und Blau im silbernen [Spitz-]Wellenschnitt im Verhältnis 5 zu 2 geteilter Schild, dessen unteres Feld von sechs zum Schnitt parallelen silbernen Wellenlinien geteilt ist. Im Schildfuß eine goldene, schwarz gefasste Seerose mit drei grünen, schwarz gefassten Blättern, die von einem bis zum oberen Schildrand reichenden, silbernen, schwarz gefugten Rustikaportal (Form des Veldener Schlossportals) überhöht wird.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on September 4, 1965.

The municipality used a seal with a steam vessel from around 1900 until the 1950s. This symbolised shipping on the Wörther See lake.

At the same time the local tourist information service used on its publications a shield showing a gate and in the base a lake with a water lily. The gate is the entrance to the Velden Castle (1603), the late the Wörther See. In the 1930s three swallows were added in the upper left corner, see image below.

The municipality started to use this design as official arms already in 1940 (see below). The gate was also used as part of the armorial logo of the Castle Velden Hotel.

It was thus logical that the municipality applied for the gate (and lake/waterlily) as official arms as early as 1953. Several designs were made, but it took until 1963 (!) before the arms were finally granted.

The arms were confirmed after the mergers from 1973.
