Origin/meaning
Schleiz is a city in the former Wisentagau territory and is situated along the Wisenta river. The arms thus show a canting wisent (European bison). The arms are already seen on the seal of the city from 1297 and were officially granted in 1915.
Hupp showed in the 1920s the arms with a normal bull, see below.
