Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 8, 1956.

The district is made up of two former areas in the County Brandenburg-Ansbach. The two areas, Gunzenhausen and Hohentrüdingen adopted symbols in 1718/19, which are combined in the new arms. The Gunzenhausen area used a bend with a fishing hook, whereas Hohentrüdingen used the arms of the Counts of Truhendingen, who became extinct in 1424. The latter arms were used in the colours of Brandenburg-Ansbach, silver and black.

Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
