KLINGS
State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Wartburgkreis
Official blazon
(de) In Blau eine goldene Glocke, belegt mit einem kleinen silbernen Oval, darin ein schwarzes Kreuz; die Glocke wird flankiert von zwei zugewendeten silbernen grkrümmten Forellen, die mit je vier goldenen kleinen Scheiben belegt sind.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on June 9, 1994.
The bell is taken from old village seals and is a canting sybol (klingen means to ring a bell). According to legend the chapel was named Clingison and was built close to a lake rich in trout, hence the trout with the golden discs.
The village was a longtime possession of the Fulda Abbey, which is symbolised by the small black cross.
