Coat of arms, logo, symbol & flag

With the aim of creating a uniform public image with high recognition value, the Salzlandkreis district developed a logo and symbol based on its coat of arms.

The symbol can be used free of charge by any citizen, club, association, etc. to demonstrate their connection to the Salzlandkreis district.

Please send any requests to use the coat of arms or logo in writing to:

  • The coat of arms

    Coat of arms of the Salzlandkreis

    The coat of arms is the emblem of the Salzland district. The constitutive district council approved the administration's design on 11 July 2007. The final version was approved by the Minister of the Interior of Saxony-Anhalt in a document dated 29 October 2007.

    According to the circular issued by the Ministry of the Interior on 18 July 2007, "Approval of coats of arms and flags of municipalities, administrative communities and districts", anyone is permitted to reproduce the approved coat of arms for heraldic and scientific purposes, as well as for teaching and civic education purposes. Beyond that, the coat of arms may only be used with the permission of the Salzlandkreis district. In general, however, reference is made to the "symbol"!

    Blazon (heraldic description):

    "Quartered in red and silver, 1 and 4: in a golden cuirass a silver piece of salt with three golden ribbons; 2: a golden armoured and studded black eagle, the saxes covered with golden clover stalks; 3: a striding black bear with red studding and a silver collar on a sloping, black-lined red crenellated wall with a closed silver gate with black fittings and a black lock on the right side.


  • The logo

    Logo with coat of arms

    The logo depicts the coat of arms of the Salzlandkreis district in conjunction with the lettering of the district name and a red underline to indicate the district colours (red and white). Organisations of the Salzlandkreis can insert their name under the red line.

    The logo was adopted by the district council on 12 December 2007.

    The use of the logo is equivalent to the coat of arms, i.e. reserved for the owner (the Salzlandkreis).

  • The symbol

    Symbol of the Salzland district

    In a slightly modified form, the symbol contains the motifs of the coat of arms in a loose arrangement in a transparent shield, in the background of which the flag of the district is depicted. The lettering of the district's name crowns the shield.

    The symbol was approved by the district council on 12 December 2007.
    The symbol can be used by anyone to visually establish a connection with the Salzlandkreis district.


  • The flag

    The flag of the Salzlandkreis is striped red and white (1:1) with the district coat of arms in the centre. In the longitudinal form, the position of the coat of arms in the vertical deviates slightly from the centre in accordance with the regulations.

    The constituent district council approved the administration's design on 11 July 2007. The flag was approved by the Minister of the Interior of Saxony-Anhalt in a certificate dated 29 October 2007.
