Hottington ~Coat of Arms
Germany
.Origin and Meaning
The arms were never officially granted.
The arms were already used by the council in the late 19th century, in the early
19th century only a garb was used on the seal. The arms indicate the importance
of agriculture for the municipality.
In 1911 the State Archives proposed new arms, a red shield with a gold spinning
wheel. This was a symbol for the local wool spinning industry. The local
council, however, rejected the proposal and continued with the old arms.
