Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Switzerland - Schweizer Wappen / Armorial de Suisse |
EGGERSRIET
Canton : Sankt Gallen
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on May 1st, 1945 and again on November 6, 1986.
The both arms are nearly identical, the difference is that on the old arms (see image below) the leaves of the reeds did not originate from the roots of the plant as in the present arms.
The arms are canting, reeds (Riet) on points (Eggen). The colours are those of the canton.
