Wappen von Nossen

Official blazon

(de) In Silber drei bewurzelte rote Nussbäume.

Origin/meaning

The arms are canting, showing some hazelnut branches (Nuss is nut). The name is, however, of Slavonic origin and means a promontory. The old seals showed complete trees, as also shown by Hupp in the early 20th century. Later the city simplified the design.
