Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on September 16, 1994.

The arms symbolise with the upper division the geographical parts Bruch (low land) and Höhe (high land). The 21 bars symbolise the 21 original municipalities in the Amt (reduced by mergers since then). The base symbolises the many waters in the region with the Common Bream in base as being the most common fish in the lakes. It also refers to the (former) importance of fisheries.
