District (Kreis) : Eichsfeld

Official blazon

(de) In Grün mit einem silbernen Bord sieben silberne hintereinander schreitende Männer, gemeinsam eine waagerechte silberne Lanze haltend.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 31, 1998, but have been in use since 1951.

The arms show seven people from Schwaben, making it a canting symbol. The name supposedly was derived from the Field of the people from Schwaben (Schwab(en)feld).
