Wappen von Nidda/Arms of Nidda
Official blazon
German Im schwarzen Schild über einem erniedrigten Halbbogen, darin ein achtstrahliger goldener Stern, eine durchgehende silberne Zinnenmauer mit rotem Tor, überragt von einem bezinnten silbernen Mittelturm zwischen zwei silberbe­dachten Seitentürmen, alle mit roten Fenstern

Origin/meaning

Nidda became a city in 1234 and the oldest seal probably dates from the same time. The seal shows a city wall with towers and a gate. From the 14th century onwards, the gate is replaced by the moon and crescent. The colours are known since 1718. The city walls represent the fact that Nidda was a city, the star is taken from the arms of the Lords of Ziegenhain, who owned the city, whereas the crescent may be a typical city or religious symbol.
