Coat of Arms Pollham (Austria) Hoodie: Design Description
This hoodie features the striking coat of arms of the municipality of Pollham, located in Upper Austria. The design is a bold representation of the town's history and heritage, meticulously crafted with heraldic precision.
The Shield: A Divided Heritage
The central element of the design is the shield, which is vertically divided (per pale) to showcase two distinct halves.
Heraldic Dexter: Saint Laurence's Martyrdom
On the right side of the shield (heraldic dexter, viewer's left) rests a stark black field (sable). Emblazoned upon this dark canvas is a gleaming golden (or) grid, a stylized representation of a roast grate. This powerful symbol is a direct reference to the martyrdom of Saint Laurence, the patron saint of Pollham's parish. According to legend, he was executed upon a burning grid.
Heraldic Sinister: Remembering the Polheimer Family
The left side of the shield (heraldic sinister, viewer's right) is a study in elegant contrast. It's composed of alternating diagonal stripes of silver (argent) and red (gules) – a design known as "schräglinks geteilt." These stripes recall the coat of arms of the noble Polheimer family, whose ancestral roots were in the region. This element pays homage to their historic connection to the area.
Colors and Significance
The combination of the black and gold grate with the silver and red stripes tells a rich story. The colors represent both religious devotion and local noble history, weaving a vibrant narrative of Pollham's identity into a compelling visual emblem.
