Summary edit

Description
English: Coat of Arms of the canton of Graubünden, 1803–1932, known as "Fusionswappen" ("fusion coat of arms"). The current coat of arms was introduced 1933.

It is a combination of the three coats of arms of the Three Leagues, center: argent an ibex sable (for the League of God's House), dexter: per pale argent and sable, supported by St. George (for the Grey League), sinister: quarterly azure and or, a cross counterchanged, supported by a wild man (for the League of the Ten Jurisdictions).

The three coats of arms were shown side by side from the 16th century, their combination as overlapping, sometimes within an enclosing coat of arms, dates to the 19th century, after the fusion of the Three Leagues to the canton of Grisons (Graubünden) in 1803. The supporters were the Mother of God with Child, St. George and the Dragon, and the Wild Man (Wildmannli), but the central supporter (Mother of God) was omitted in the 1803 design, showing the central shield oval and somewhat taller [not shown in this representation], and showing the other two with square eared, scribed tops for the other two.
