Wappen von Traunstein (kreis)

Official blazon

Gespalten; vorne in Silber ein schreitender, rot bewehrter und Feuer speiender blauer Panter; hinten geteilt von Gold und Rot; oben ein rot bewehrter, schwarzer Adler, unten auf grünem Dreiberg eine zweitürmige silberne Burg, hinter der ein grüner Baum aufwächst.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 21, 1955 and confirmed on May 14, 1976.

The panther is derived from the arms of the Counts of Krainburg-Ortenburg, of the Spanheim dynasty, who owned several estates in the area in the early Middle Ages. They founded in 1255 the town of Trostberg. The eagle is derived from the arms of the diocese of Chiemsee. The lower left quarter shows the canting arms of the Baumburg Abbey (tree-castle), that ruled a large part of the Northern part of the district.
