Tangerhütte Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale, at dexter Argent a demi-eagle Gules armed Or couped per pale, at sinister Argent, above hammer and mallet Sable in saltire and beneath three grain ears Vert with two leaves of the same issuant from base.
Meaning:
The demi-eagle is a differenciation of the Brandenburg arms. Hammer and mallet are symbolising mining and processing of iron. The grain ears are symbolising agriculture.

Though the municipality currently has no official symbols, the old symbols are in use. The arms were approved on 24 September 1936 by province governor (Oberpr�sident) of the Prussian Saxony Province. The flag was approved on 20 July 1999 by district governor (Regierungspräsident) of Magdeburg. The symbols probably were abolished on 31 May 2010.
