LUZEIN DISTRICT

Canton : Graubünden

Origin/meaning

The arms show a wing , taken from arms of the Matsch family. The wing already appears in the seal of the Castels-Luzein-Jenaz court in 1684. In the 19^th century the court used a seal with only a simple cross, but the arms are based on the oldest seal.
