SCHLEID
State : Rheinland-Pfalz
District (Kreis) : Bitburg-Prüm (until 1970 Bitburg)
Verbandsgemeinde : Verbandsgemeinde Bitburg-Land
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on September 10, 1993.
The arms show the Schleid stream that runs through the village. The stream historically was the border between the possessions of the Archbishops of Trier and the Abbey in Prüm. Both ruled the area for about 1000 years until the 19th century. The two rulers are symbolised by two crosiers, for the archbishops and the abbotts.
