Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 29, 1978 and continued after the independence of Moldova and de-facto independence of Transnistria.

The arms refer to the Dniester river and show symbols of industry and agriculture. The colours were in 1979 defined as the colours of the Moldovan SSR and after 1989 they symbolise confidence (red), hope (green), credibility (blue) and well-being (gold).

The first coat of arms of Tiraspol was approved on November 7, 1847:
