Geography

History

The village of Döblitz was first mentioned in 1286 in a deed of gift, in which it is called Dobelicz. Founded on the banks of the River Saale, it used to be a fishing village. Like many other settlements to the east of the River Saale, Döblitz is of Slavic origin.

Coat of arms

The coat of arms was approved by the Regierungspräsidium Halle on 4 May 1999. It shows a red sailing boat with a blue pennant. The vessel is sailing on blue water with two silver waves. The background of the coat of arms is also silver.
