JENA (J)
State : Thüringen
Incorporated into : 1994 Saale-Holzland Kreis
Origin/meaning :
The arms were officially granted on November 19, 1991.
The small shield shows the arms of the Counts of Orlamünde, as a large part of the district historically belonged to that county. The castle is the Leuchtenberg, the most impressive castle in the district. The two black pine trees represent the many forests in the region, whereas the blue wavy bar refers to the Saale.
