BRIMINGEN
State : Rheinland-Pfalz
District (Kreis) : Bitburg-Prüm (until 1970 Bitburg)
Verbandsgemeinde : Verbandsgemeinde Bitburg-Land
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on February 21, 1992.
The five rings in the chief symbolise the former estates in the municipality. The gold and red colours are derived from the arms of the Counts of Manderscheid-Blankenheim. The lower part shows the symbol of one of the Estates, founded in 1730. It symbolises a plant growing from the fertile ground, making it also an appropriate symbol for the mainly agricultural village.
