The cross on the one hand symbolises St. George, the patron saint of the large cathedral in [[Limburg an der Lahn]], and on the other hand the [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]]. The bishops of Trier acquired gradually the whole district in the 14<sup>th</sup> century. The small squares on the cross are derived from the arms of the 15<sup>th</sup> century Counts of Limburg, who used a chequered bar in their arms.
