Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on July 31, 1963.
Schwabstedt was a fortified city of the Bishops of Schleswig. The arms, which were granted in 1963, are based on the oldest seal of the city, known since the 13th century. The tower is the local castle and residence of the bishops. The two keys are the symbol of St. Peter, patron saint of Schleswig. The wavy base of the shield symbolises the Treene. The water-lily leaves in the base are a new addition from 1963.
