Object history |
Deutsch: Genehmigt am 31. Oktober 1925.
English: The arms were granted in 1925.
Ainaži was initially a village of Livonian fishers. Its name means "lonely" in Livonian, because it was the only one village on large environs.
In the middle of the 19th century a group of Latvian and Estonian masters established in Ainaži a small shipyard of sailboats. Krišjanis Valdemars, a leader of Latvian national renascence, realized that the local fishermen are good sailors, but the lack of professional skills stopped the development of long distance sailing and merchant shipping. Valdemars organized the fishermen of Ainaži and established a nautical school in 1864. It was the beginning of rapid growth of the town and seaport. City rights were granted in 1926. The arms were granted a little sooner, in 1925. The inhabitants chose an anchor as a symbol of seaport. The griffin was taken from the Vidzeme arms. Русский: Утвержден 31 октября 1925 года.
Грифон символизирует принадлежность города к исторической области Видземе. Якорь символизирует морской порт. |
