LASSEN COUNTY

State : California

Seal (crest) of Lassen County

Origin/meaning

Lassen County was formed in 1864 and was named for Peter Lassen, one of Gen. John C. Fremont’s guides and a famous frontiersman.

The seal came into use in 1954 to identify vehicles and equipment used by the county road department.

The Lassen County seal is a view of Mount Lassen from Manzanita Lake at the north entrance in Lassen Volcanic National Park, which began as two national monuments designated by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1907. Mount Lassen is the largest “plug dome” volcano in the world.
