Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Austria - Österreichische Gemeindewappen |
GOSSENDORF
State : Steiermark
District : Feldbach
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on May 13th, 1985.
The arms are based on the coat of arms used by the Winkler auf Hainfeld family, lords of the manor at the beginning of the 16th century, that displayed an angle and a star. To the Winkler, the Winkel (angle) was canting heraldry. The municipality replaced the star with a leaf of the sweet chestnut tree, which grows in the region.
