Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Germany - Deutsche Wappen (Gemeindewappen/Kreiswappen) |
BASBECK
State : Niedersachsen
District (Kreis) : Cuxhaven
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
Unfortunately I only have a small black-and-white image. A colour image is welcome !
The kettle-hook is used as a symbol for agriculture and for the first fireplace in the village. The blue bar is the Basbecke stream, on which banks the village developed. The pale itself is derived from the arms of the Lords of Brobergen, who had some land in the area in the 13th century and built their estate in the 15th century in Basbeck.
