LILIENTHAL
State : Niedersachsen

Additions : 1974 Heidberg, Sankt Jürgen, Seebergen und Worphausen

Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1956 and were based on the old arms of the Amt Lilienthal. These in turn were based on the arms of the Cistercian monastery founded in 1232 by Gerard von der Lippe, Archbishop of Bremen. The St. Mary is the patron saint of the monastery, the lilies are canting as well as a symbol for the St. Mary.
