Groß Gerau County Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
The shield is divided per pale. The dexter side is nine times divided into red and silver (= white). The sinister side is four times divided into silver (= white) and black, i.e. we have ten resp. five horizontal stripes. The shield has a blue inescutcheon charged by three silver (= white) lozenges ordered 2:1.
Meaning:
The number and pattern of stripes is the same like that one of the Hessian lion in the arms of the state. The sinister half displays the arms of the Counts of Isenburg (two black fesses in silver). The inescutcheon is representing the administrators (Drosten) of Dornberg, who had been the predecessors of the Counts of Katzenelnbogen.

Flag, banner and coat of arms were approved on 25 January 1967.
