Object history
Deutsch: Das Wappen von Ossi Krapf entworfene Wappen des Landkreises Rhön-Grabfeld wurde am 17. August 1976 von der Regierung Unterfranken verliehen. Die Krone weist auf das einstige Königsgut im Grabfeld, auf Königshofen sowie auf die Kaiserpfalz Salz, die in der Nähe von Neustadt a.d. Saale vermutet wird, hin. Die drei Hochkreuze stehen für den Kreuzberg, einen bedeutenden Wallfahrtsort. Der Wellenbalken symbolisiert die Fränkische Saale und weist auch auf die zahlreichen Heilquellen im Kreisgebiet hin.
English: The arms were officially granted on August 17, 1976. The arms show in the upper part a crown, which symbolises the former Royal estate in Königshofen im Grabfeld as well as the Imperial estate near Neustadt an der Saale. The fess wavy symbolises the many rivers in the district, especially the Saale. The fess also symbolises the two parts of the district, the Rhön and the Grabfeld areas. The crosses in the lower half represent the Kreuzberg, one of the major landmarks in the Rhön area. Gules and Argent are the colours of Franken, whereas the vert symbolises the many forests in the district.
