Wappen von Münster (Hessen)

Official blazon

  • (de) Ein geteilter Schild; oben in Silber zwei schwarze Balken, unten in Rot ein silberner (nicht wachsender) Schwan mit goldener Bewehrung.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1956.

The arms are a combination of the arms of the counts of Isenburg (upper part, see Neu-Isenburg) and the swan, which was the crest of the counts of Hanau. In the 17th century both families ruled over Münster. The arms are based on a seal from 1683, in which the two arms were quartered.
