ÎNTORSURA BUZĂULUI

District/county (județ) : Covasna

Official blazon

Un scut triunghiular cu marginile rotunjite. În câmp roșu se află un brad dezrădăcinat natural, flancat stânga-dreapta, sus, de două steluțe de gheață, de argint. Pe fascia de culoare neagră este plasată o locomotivă de epocă, de argint, spre dreapta. În vârful scutului se află un brâu undat, de argint. Scutul este trimbrat de o coroană murală de argint cu trei turnuri crenelate.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on January 31, 2007.

The fir tree and the ice crystals symbolize that the locality is located in a mountainous area, considered the pole of the cold in Romania.

The black bar and the locomotive remind us that at Întorsura Buzăului there is the longest railway tunnel in the country.

The wavy bar is the symbolic image of the Buzau river, which is also found in the name of the locality.

The mural crown with three crenellated towers means that the town has the status of a city.
