HARSEFELD

State: Niedersachsen
District (Kreis): Stade
Additions: 1972 Hollenbeck, Issendorf, Ruschwedel
Samtgemeinde: Samtgemeinde Harsefeld

Wappen von Harsefeld/Arms (crest) of Harsefeld
Official blazon
German In Silber ein schwarzer Ritter auf schwarzem, mit Gold gezäumtem, springendem Ross. Im blauen Schildhaupt drei goldene Rosen und im blauen Schildfuß zwei goldene Rosen.
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1948.

The knight is derived from the 19th century seal of the town, which showed a knight on a horse. The origin of the knight is not known, it may be that the original symbol was a horse, a canting element (from Harse=Horse). It has also been stated that the knight symbolises the 12th century Counts of Stade.
The roses are a canting element, as the name most likely is derived from a word for rose, not for horse. It is also a symbol for the Rosenfeld Abbey in the town, which played a major role in the local history.

Hupp showed rather different arms in the 1920s. These arms shown above were identical to the arms of the Rosenfeld Abbey and used by the Amt (district) of Harsefeld until the late 18th century.
