MAMONOVO (Мамоново)
Federal subject : Kaliningrad Oblast
Official blazon
Щит пересеченный золото-черный с узким волнообразным лазоревым поясом. В верхней части щита заходящее червленое солнце с червлеными же лучами-лепестками, в нижней - две крестообразно положенные серебряные с золотыми рукоятками секиры.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on April 20, 2000.
The two axes are a canting symbol and the old arms of the city, in German known as Heiligenbeil (holy-ax). According to legend, the Teutonic knights could not cut down a sacred oak in what is now the town until the Bishop of Ermland consecrated the ax they used.
On May 15, 1938 new arms were granted, showing a divided shield with in chief a wolf and in base the axes.
The meaning of the sun in the current arms I do not know.
 Seal from around 1900 |
 The arms in the Wappen-Sammlung (1900) |
 The arms in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
 The arms from 1938 |
