===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The arms were officially granted on February 19, 1951. | |||
The upper part shows three lapwing eggs, the lapwing is a very common bird in the area. The two eel-like fist are European weatherfish (Putaale; ''Misgurnus fossilis''), a common fish in the marshlands in the municipality. | |||
The pot in the base is a symbol for the Bronze Age findings and therefore for the longtime inhabitation of the region. | |||
The colours are those of the former Oldenburg county, to which the region historically belonged. | |||
