LUG
State : Rheinland-Pfalz
District (Kreis) : Südwestpfalz
Verbandsgemeinde : Verbandsgemeinde Hauenstein
Official blazon
Von Grün und Silber mit Scharte geteilt, oben ein goldener Reichsapfel mit rotem Reif und goldenem Kleeblattkreuz, unten zwei gleichschenklige schwebende rote Tatzenkreuze.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on January 18, 1984.
Lug belonged until 1793 to the Gossersweiler council in the Germersheim Amt and the two crosses in the base of the arms are taken from the seal of the council. The whole area was part of the Pfalz, which is symbolised by the royal orb, one of the elements often used in the arms of the Princes of the Pfalz. The name Lug is derived from a medieval word meaning 'close to a gorge'. This is symbolised by the division line in the arms. The green colour symbolises the forests in the municipality.
