The arms show the arms of the four main rulers in the district. The first quarter shows the Imperial eagle as a large part of the district was directly ruled by the emperors in the 12th and 13<sup>th</sup> century. The second quarter shows the lion of the Pfalz, as the Counts of the Pfalz ruled a large part of the district from their castle in Cochem. The third quarter shows the arms of the diocese and [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]], that ruled for 500 years over the Wetsern part of the district. The fourth quarter is divided in the Prussian colours, as the whole district was Prussian from 1803-1945. | The arms show the arms of the four main rulers in the district.
