Wartmannsroth.jpg

Official blazon

Gespalten; vorne in Silber ein frei schwebendes schwarzes Tatzenkreuz, hinten geteilt von Silber und Blau; oben in rotem Balken drei eingebogene goldene Pfähle, unten ein mit drei blauen Ringen belegter silberner Schrägbalken.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on February 15, 1979 and are identical to the old arms of Völkesleier.

The arms show the cross of the State of Fulda, the arms of the Lords of Thüngen and the silver bend in blue with the three rings from the Julius-hospital in Würzburg. The area of the municipalities historically belonged to these entities.
