VORSFELDE'
State : Niedersachsen
District (Kreis) : Wolfsburg (until 1972 Helmstedt)
Incorporated into : 1972 Wolfsburg
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
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 15th century, but the oldest known seal dates from the 17th century. The seal showed the boar on a filed (Felde) and the arms thus have not changed since.
