Gerstungen Coat of Arms

Shield Vert parted in sinister chief by a bend wavy Argent parted twice, issuant from base a bird's nest Or, in nest a stork vigilant proper holding a barley ear Or in pale pointing downwards by his beak, on sinister chief point a facetted 6-point star Or.
Meaning:
The stork is a typical bird in the village as there had been already nests on the local castle since medieval times. The barley ear (German: Gerste) is a canting element. The combination of stork and barley appeared for the first time in the 18th century on local seals. The wavy bend is symbolising the Werra River and the green shield the green fields surrounding the river. The division of the bend in three parts symbolises the three villages, Gerstungen, Neustädt and Sallmannshausen in the municipality. The star was added in 2004. Its points are representing the current six parts of the municipality.

Shield parted per pale; at dexter Vert parted by a centred cross Or, charged in its centre by a sinister facing boar head; at sinister Or a wolf rampant Sable, armed and tongued Or; issuant from base a mount parted per pale of Or and Vert.
