State: Schleswig-Holstein
District (Kreis): Steinburg
Additions: 1911 Kratt, Sude; 1963 Edendorf
German | In Rot über blauen Wellen auf einer durchgehenden silbernen Mauer zwei spitzbedachte silberne Zinnentürme mit geschlossenem Tor; zwischen den Turmdächern ein silbernes Nesselblatt. |
English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on March 26, 1938.
The arms are based on the oldest seal of the city, dating from the middle of the 15th century, see images below. Itzehoe had received city rights in 1238 from Count Adolf IV of Holstein. The seal showed a city wall with two towers, rising from a sea, and between the towers a small shield with the arms of the Counts of Holstein (Nesselblatt or nettle-leaf). The use of the Nesselblatt in a shield continued until 1918. In the present arms the Nesselblatt appears without the shield.
