Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Germany - Deutsche Wappen (Gemeindewappen/Kreiswappen) |
DIETZHAUSEN
State : Thüringen
Urban District (Kreisfreie Stadt) : Suhl
Incorporated into : 1994 Suhl
Origin/meaning
The arms have never been officially granted.
The old seal of Dietzhausen already showed a hen, which is the symbol of the Henneberg county, to which the village historically belonged. The chevron symbolises the many timber-framed houses in the village. The colours were chosen arbitrarily and deliberately not natural for the hen, to distinguish the arms from the many other simialr arms in the region.
Literature : Hupp, 1930s
