Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Switzerland - Schweizer Wappen / Armorial de Suisse |
DÜBENDORF
Canton : Zürich
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 7, 1926.
The arms are based on the medieval Lords of Dübendorf. The arms as shown above already appear on the seal of a Lords of Dübendorf dating from 1292. Later images of the arms show the unicorn on a silver or blue background. The original seal showed only two pales, which was later changed into the six fields in the above arms.
The arms as such are a combination of the two overlords of the Lords of Dübendorf, the Lords of Tengen (unicorn) and the Lords of Regensberg.
