Description
This poster dedicated to the coats of arms of Latvia’s administrative divisions, features the coats of arms of 81 cities and 35 municipalities. It is complemented by the coats of arms of Latvia’s historical regions as well as the national coat of arms of the Republic of Latvia.
The tradition of granting coats of arms to Latvia’s administrative units has deep historical roots. Many city coats of arms were approved during the first period of Latvian independence. Municipal coats of arms began to appear more widely after the administrative reform of 1990.
Each municipal coat of arms is accompanied by information about the municipality’s area and population as of 2024. For cities, the year in which city rights were granted and current population figures are provided.
