Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Austria - Österreichische Gemeindewappen |
KINDBERG
State : Steiermark
District : Mürzzuschlag
Origin/meaning
The arms are canting, showing a child (Kind) on a hill (Berg), surrounded by two flowers and two stars. The arms are already seen on a seal of the village dating from April 18, 1652. An older stamp for a seal exists, dating from the 16th century, which shows the same composition, but with the child facing the opposite direction, see image below.
The 16th century seal of Kindberg |
In the late 19th century the arms were shown wrongly by Ströhl in the overview of city arms in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Instead of the flowers and two stars, now three stars were shown above the child and a beehive with bees was added.
The arms in the Coffee Hag album +/- 1932 |
The arms in the Abadie album +/- 1930 |
