HARPSTEDT
State : Niedersachsen
District (Kreis) : Oldenburg (until 1979 Grafschaft Hoya)
Samtgemeinde : Samtgemeinde Harpstedt
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms show a canting harp, which first appears on the seals of the town from the 18th century. On most old images the harp is placed on a divided shield, but sometimes on a plain blue shield (thus resembling the arms of Ireland). The origin of the background is not known.
