Object history
Deutsch: Das von Ernst Thrun entworfene Wappen des Rhein-Lahn Kreises wurde am 26. Januar 1970 vom rheinland-pfälzischen Innenministerium verliehen. Die Farben Blau und Gold sind die Farben von Nassau, Rot ist die Farbe der Kurfürstentümer Kurmainz und Kurtrier, welche früher Anteile am heutigen Kreisgebiet hatten. Der Löwe steht für die zahlreichen Wappenlöwen in diesem Gebiet, u. a. von Nassau, Katzenelnbogen, Diez und Kurpfalz.
English: The arms were granted on January 26, 1970. The lion was part of the arms of both the two old districts. Similarly many very influential noble families from the area used a lion in their arms; f.e. the County of Diez, House of Nassau, County of Katzenelnbogen and the Electoral Palatinate. The colours represent the former districts.
