Origin/meaning

Ruhla was divided in 1640 between Sachsen-Weimar and Sachsen-Gotha. The Sachsen-Weimer part received city rights in 1896 and used as arms a rising sunflower. The Sachsen-Gotha used in its seals a smith, taken from a local legend. When on November 30, 1927 the two cities were again united the common seal showed a smith, but without anvil. The present arms were designed in the middle of the 20th century.
