JUNGLINSTER
Origin/meaning :
The arms were granted on December 11, 1984.
The largest part of the municipality historically belonged to the estate of Linster. The Lords of Linster of the Orley family used a shield of silver with two red pales. These form the base of the shield of the arms.
The cross is a symbol for the influence and possessions of the Abbey in Echternach in the municipality.
