Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on October 26, 1994.
The lion is the lion of the Counts (later Princes) of Schwarzburg, who, in the Middle Ages, ruled most of the present district. The small shield shows the arms of the Counts of Mansfeld, who, in the 18th century, acquired several estates in the district.
The base of the shield symbolises the mountainous terrain, with many forests, and the Wipper river.
