'''GREIZ (GRZ)'''
===Origin/meaning===
The arms were granted on June 19, 1997.


State : [[Thüringen]]<br/>
The golden lion and the crane are derived from the arms of the Lords of Reuss, who ruled the largest part of the district for many centuries. A small part of the district belonged to one of the Duchies of Sachsen, hence the base of the shield, which shows a simplified version of the arms of Sachsen.
Additions : 1993 [[Gera-Land]], [[Zeulenroda (kreis)|Zeulenroda]]
