State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Wartburgkreis (until 1994 Bad Salzungen )
Additions : 1950 Dorf Allendorf, Kloster, Wildprechtroda; 1974 Kaltenborn, Langenfeld, Hohleborn
Official blazon
Auf blauem Grund ein Bischof in goldenem Ornat mit roten Schuhen, in der rechten Hand einen goldenen Krummstab und in der linken Hand ein rotes Buch mit schwarzem Kreuz.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on June 26, 1991.
Salzungen received city rights around 1305 and the oldest known seal dates from 1345. The seal already showed the local patron saint, St. Bonifatius, holding a crosier and bible. The saint also appeared on all later seals and arms until 1949.
 Seal from around 1900 |
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
On December 1, 1949 the arms below were granted.
These arms show a fountain (as the city is a spa (Bad)) and a cogwheel for the local industry. These arms were used until 1991 when the historical arms were restored.
