Wappen Burgenlandkreis (Germany) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features the striking coat of arms (Wappen) of the Burgenlandkreis district in Germany. The design is a vibrant representation of the region's history and character, rendered in a classic heraldic style.
Visual Elements
The central element is a red castle, meticulously depicted with black mortar joints. The castle's curtain wall is lowered, and it is flanked by two prominent turrets that partially extend beyond the shield's edge. Nestled between the turrets is a prominent bunch of six blue grapes, arranged in a traditional 3-2-1 pattern, with two accompanying green leaves. A golden shield is superimposed on the castle wall, bearing a crossed miner's hammer and pick in black.
Symbolism and Meaning
The red castle, or "Burg," is a direct reference to the numerous castles ("Burgen") found throughout the Burgenlandkreis district, and is the origin of the district's name ("district of castles"). The blue grapes and green leaves symbolize the region's rich viticulture tradition, reflecting a long history of winemaking. The crossed miner’s hammer and pick pay homage to the area's historical mining industry, particularly the tradition from the former Weissenfels area.
The design, officially adopted in 2008, combines elements of earlier administrative areas, making it a powerful visual statement of the Burgenlandkreis's identity.
