WEIDA

State : Thüringen
District (Kreis) : Greiz

Wappen von Weida/Arms (crest) of Weida
Official blazon
German In Gold eine zweitürmige rote Burg mit offenem Tor, hinter der Zinnenmauer wachsend ein grüner Weidenbaum.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were adopted in 1949.

The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city, dating from 1333. The gate and two towers symbolise the fortified character of the city in medieval times (Weida was already mentioned as a city in 1209). The willow (Weide) branch is a canting symbol, which also already appeared on the old seal. The colours were first mentioned in 1515 in a document at present in the Erfurt university library.
