Coat of Arms

The oak tree in the coat of arms symbolize the formerly big oak forests of Dreieich (three oaks). The escutcheon in the middle shows a combination of the coat of arms of the Counts of Isenburg in the left and the wheel of Mainz in the right, as the districts area belonged to these two counties in the past.

Famous quotes containing the words coat and/or arms:

    Your coat in my closet,
    your bright stones on my hand,
    the gaudy fur animals
    I do not know how to use,
    settle on me like a debt.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I’ve been opened and undressed.
    I have no arms or legs.
    I’m all one skin like a fish.
    I’m no more a woman
    than Christ was a man.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
