Origin/meaning

Wustrow developed around the castle of the Lords of Wustrow and received city rights in the early 14^th century. The oldest seal dates from around 1400 and shows already the above arms.

The arms are derived from the arms of the medieval Counts of Lüchow, their crest showed a helmet with peacock feathers, which is placed in the centre of the shield. In the 19^th century the crest was often shown as a shining sun, but this has been restored.
