EICHSFELD (EIC)
State : Thüringen
Additions : 1994 Heiligenstadt, Worbis
Official blazon
In Silber ein rechtsgewendeter roter Adler mit goldenem Schnabel und goldenen Krallen, belegt mit einem silbernen sechsspeiehigen Rad.
Origin/meaning
The arms were initially granted in 1991 to the former Worbis District and continued after 1994.
The arms show the eagle of Brandenburg with the wheel of the State of Mainz on its breast. A large part of the district belonged from the 9th century until 1802 to the State of Mainz. After 1802 the area belonged to the Prussian province of Brandenburg.
The combination of the two symbols was first mentioned in 1817, when the arms were added to the great arms of the Kings of Prussia as the 32nd field (of 48).
