LUZEIN DISTRICT
Canton : Graubünden
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms show a wing , taken from arms of the Matsch family. The wing already appears in the seal of the Castels-Luzein-Jenaz court in 1684. In the 19th century the court used a seal with only a simple cross, but the arms are based on the oldest seal.
Literature : Wappenbuch des Kantons Graubünden, 1982.
