LEDERHOSE

State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Greiz

Official blazon

(de) In Gold eine grüne Hose mit Trägern und Brustlatz (Lederhose).

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on March 22, 2004.

The Lederhose ('leather breeches') is a typical German/Central European type of trousers, and thus a clear canting symbol. The trousers already appeared in the seal from 1846.
