The Municipality of Dimitrovgrad uses an emblem in the shape of a shield, rendered in green and white, with an upper edge in the form of a crenellated wall and the name of the municipality written at the bottom. The municipal Statute of 6 June 2002 calls this device a coat of arms and interprets its composition as a goblet with a cogwheel, an ear of grain, a ram's head and parts of a folk costume; according to the Statute, the device may be used only together with the state symbols.
Blazon
A green shield with a white border and an upper end in the form of a crenellated wall; in the centre an upright white stylised motif of vertical lines, bent at the top into two spirals resembling a horn, and on each side a sheaf of white curved lines descending towards the base, and in the lower part the white inscription “Димитровград”. According to the Statute, the whole device represents a goblet: the crenellated top is a semicircular cogwheel, the central motif an upright ear of grain with the head of a ram whose horns curl downwards, the side sheaves a symmetrical rendering of the breast part of a folk costume, and the inscription is written in an arc on the upper part of the goblet's base.
