Object history
Deutsch: Das von Otto Hupp gestaltete Wappen wurde am 1. Juni 1926 von der Preußischen Staatsregierung genehmigt. Es geht auf die Her­zöge von Oppeln zurück, welche einen Adler im Wappen zeigten. Das Sensenblatt steht für die Landwirtschaft, Schlägel und Eisen für den Bergbau.
English: The arms were officially granted on June 1, 1926. The eagle was first used by Duke Mesko (died in 1211) and has been used as the arms for the area since, even though the Duchy itself did no longer exist. The Prussian province was created in 1921 and combined the historical eagle with symbols of mining and agriculture.
