Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on July 5, 2004.
The arms of Gardelegen are based on the oldest known seals of the city, which date from 1309 and 1327. The seals already showed the red eagle of Brandenburg, as the city belonged to Brandenburg since 1160, as well as two branches. Initially the branches were of unclear origin and probably canting (Gard=garden). Later the branches were transformed into hops, as the coty was known for brewing and cultivation of hops.
 Seal from around 1900 |
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
 Postal cancellation 1977 |
