Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Germany - Deutsche Wappen (Gemeindewappen/Kreiswappen) |
LEMKE
State : Niedersachsen
District (Kreis) : Nienburg
Incorporated into : 1974 Marklohe
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on September 8, 1967.
The wavy bar in the arms is a canting element, the name supposedly is derived from the words Lem-Beke, where Beke means stream or river. The green field and the trefoil symbolise the agricultural character of the area. The golden colour of the trefoil symbolises the sandy soils.
Literature : Ziegler, 1986
