Département : Moselle

Blason de Diesen

Official blason

Écartelé: au 1er de gueules à la lampe de mineur d’argent, au 2e d’azur semé de billettes d’or au lion couronné du même brochant sur le tout, au 3e d’azur à la fleur de lis d’or, au quatrième de gueules à la tour de réfrigération de centrale électrique d’argent.

Origin/meaning

The arms show in the first quarter a miner's lamp for the (former) importance of mining, and in the fourth a cooling tower as a symbol for the power station in the village. The second quarter shows the arms of Nassau and the third a fleur-de-lys for France. These two quarters indicate that the village was part of the county Nassau-Saarbrücken before being ceded to France.
