HASSELBERG

State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Main-Spessart (until 1973 Marktheidenfeld)
Incorporated into : 1974 Hasloch

Official blazon

In Blau ein linksgewendetes goldenes Haselhuhn, über dem ein achtstrahliger silberner Stern schwebt.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 20, 1958.

The haselhuhn (grouse) is a canting element. The star is probably taken from the arms of the Counts von Wertheim, as the village was a possession of the counts from the 13th century until 1556. The composition was already seen on a seal from 1730.
