AEUGST AM ALBIS
Canton : Zürich
Official blazon
In Silber ein kauerndes rotes Eichhörnchen, an einer goldenen Nuss nagend.
Origin/meaning
The arms were adopted on January 9, 1929.
The arms show a squirrel nibbling on a nut. The meaning of the squirrel is not known, but the oldest image dates from a book from 1605, where the squirrel nibbles on an acorn. Later images show the squirrel with a nut or an acorn, and in 1900 he was surrounded by oak leaves. In 1929 the oldest composition (colours, shape) were combined with the later used nut. The colour of the nut was only described in 1929.
