Wappen von Vorderweidenthal

Official blazon

(de)

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on December 27, 1962.

The arms show in the upper part elements form the arms of the former rulers in the region. The bars are taken from the arms of the Lords von Fleckenstein, who mainly owned possessions in Vorderweidenthal. The eagle is the eagle of the Counts von Leiningen, who owned the Lindelbrunn estate. The base shows a canting willow (Weide).

The old arms of the village were rather differently. These arms, image below, were granted officially on June 16, 1841, but were used much earlier.

Wappen von Vorderweidenthal

These arms show a linden in a pot, flanked by two golden balls. These are actually the arms of the estate and (later) Amt Lindelbrunn, to which the village belonged in the 19th century. The arms are canting (Lindel=linde, Brunn=well, the pot actually is a small village well).
