State : [[Niedersachsen]]<br/>
===Origin/meaning===
District (Kreis) : Wolfsburg (until 1972 [[Helmstedt (kreis)|Helmstedt]])<br/>
The arms show a boar, which is derived from the word Vor, or a lean piglet. The boar probably was used ad a symbol for the city already in the 15<sup>th</sup> century, but the oldest known seal dates from the 17<sup>th</sup> century. The seal showed the boar on a filed (Felde) and the arms thus have not changed since.
Incorporated into : 1972 [[Wolfsburg]]
