Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 2, 2003.

The wavy pale symbolises the Olbe river, which divides the municipality in the villages Schackensleben and Klein Santersleben. The chimney refers to the former sugar factory in Schackensleben. The linden leaves are taken from the arms of the Von Veltheim family, who had an estate i the village of Klein Santersleben. The green colour is taken as a symbol for nature and agriculture.
