Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted on January 30, 2017.

The arms may be canting (the German name is Lauenburg, Löwenburg = lion's castle). The oldest known seals, both dating from the 15^th century, show a griffin (the symbol of Pommerania) between the towers of a castle. The same image can be seen on seals in the 16^th century. It is likely that the griffin in later times was replaced by the lion, but this is not clear.
