Coat of arms

Blazon: "In gold, a green frog. "

The coat of arms of the frog image is based on a used by the community Petersroda icon representing a frog and already in GDR times became widespread. There is a legend that in Petersroda lived a child that looked like a frog and moved that way. Also, there was a frog fountain in place. More likely the derivation of the coat of arms image is but from the geographical fact that five to six ponds were in the district of Petersroda / are, of course, gave an immense frog croak in the spring.

In order not to create a loss of identity to the previously used symbolism, the coat of arms of Magdeburg Kommunualheraldiker Jörg Mantzsch on the practices of heraldic stylistics was implemented graphically and tinged.

The shield of the coat of arms is tinged golden, with gold stands in relation to the grain fields that were nutritional basis of the residents in the past.
