Körner Coat of Arms

Shield Vert, four grain ears Or in fan with two leaves of the same, held by a hand Argent.
Meaning:
The pattern first appeared on a local seal from 1860. The arms also referring to the rural character of the village, which in the early 20th century had been one of the main wheat producing villages of the Gotha-region. The arms are basically canting as the name of the municipality means "grain" (in German plural, in English no equivalent).
