Summary
| Description |
English: Coat of arms of the Danish island of Bornholm as used by the former County of Bornholm and the current Regional Municipality of Bornholm. The cockatrice has been a symbol of Bornholm since the late 16th century. Its origin is related to the liberation of Bornholm in 1658. Three danish shot and killed the swedish castle commander and sheriff Printzenskjöld before he received reinforcements, and a pillar is standing on the spot he was killed, still to this day. These three has been eternalized on the coat of arms as the cockatrice, that petrified the enemy and liberated the island..
Dansk: Våbenskjold fra den danske ø Bornholm som brugt af det tidligere Bornholms Amt og den nuværende Bornholms Regionskommune. Kakatrisen har været et symbol på Bornholm siden slutningen af 1600-tallet. Dens oprindelse er relateret til Bornholms befrielse i 1658[1]. Tre danskere skød og dræbte den svenske slotskommandant og lensmand Printzenskjöld, før han modtog forstærkninger, og en søjle står på det sted, hvor han blev dræbt, stadig den dag i dag. Disse tre er blevet foreviget på våbenskjoldet som kakatrisen, der forstenede fjenden og befriede øen.. [2] |
