The coat of arms of the Danube Swabian country team

Coat of arms of the Danube Swabian country team

In 1950, Hans Diplich designed the coat of arms of the Danube Swabian Landsmannschaft . A red armored, soaring black eagle on a golden background, divided by a blue wavy bar. In the lower half there is a six-towered white Vauban fortress with a curtain wall and red-roofed buildings on green arable land . On the left in the coat of arms is the shining sun, on the right the waning moon.

The eagle symbolizes the patronage of the emperors of Austria . The blue bar stands for the Danube as a stream of fate , on which the ancestors once drove downstream in the Swabian trains with Ulmer Schachteln and Kelheimer Platten to their new home. The rising, shining sun symbolizes the re-strengthening influence of Christianity , the waning moon (welt) as a secular symbol of Islam symbolizes the dwindling influence of the Ottoman Empire . The buildings represent the Timisoara fortress in the midst of fertile farmland, with the castle as a symbol for the imperial fortifications and the military border to protect against the Ottoman Empire . The six towers of the fortress represent the six main settlement areas of the Danube Swabians:

Diplich used the German national colors black, red and gold and the Danube Swabian tribal colors white and green for the design . White stands as a symbol of the peaceful spirit of the Danube Swabians, green as the color of hope for the new territory that has developed into a granary .
