Augsdaugava district is a Latvian municipality, in which Daugavpils district and Ilukstes district were merged on July 1, 2021, after the 2021 administrative territorial reform of Latvia. It is bordered by Jekabpils, Livani and Preilu counties in the north, Kraslava county in the east, Lithuania’s Panevezys county in the west and Utena county in the south, as well as Vitebsk county in Belarus in the south.<\/p>\n

The administrative center of the county is located in the city of Daugavpils, which is not part of the Augsdaugava district. The territory of the district corresponds to the territory of Daugavpils district (1962-2009), which existed before the previous administrative territorial reform.<\/p>\n

Coat of arms of the Augsdaugava District<\/strong><\/p>\n

Split head with wavy cut: blue and silver. In the upper field, a fluttering silver flag with tripartite ends, in the lower one, the same oak tree growing from a green base.<\/p>\n

The new district was formed by merging Daugavpils and Ilukstes districts.<\/p>\n

The coat of arms of Daugavpils county is based on fluttering silver flags, which indicate the special and important place of the county on the Latvian border. The upper part of the shield depicts a flag derived from the flags of the knights of the medieval Dinaburg Castle, while the blue color symbolizes Latgale Region.<\/p>\n

The symbolism of the coat of arms of Ilukste District is based on the story of a horse and oaks, respectively, in the lower part of the shield, a green oak is depicted in a silver field, which is also a symbol of the strength of our nation. The tree is depicted in Celia’s green color – in one variant with strong roots, in one – growing from a green base.<\/p>\n

Both of these symbols are separated by a wavy cut, which visually symbolizes the twists and turns of the Daugava River.<\/p>\n
