The origin or meaning of these arms is not known. They appear in the 19<sup>th</sup> century, but the symbolism indicates older origins.

The latter was the symbol of Pommerania. | The origin or meaning of these arms is not known. They appear in the 19<sup>th</sup> century, but the symbolism indicates older origins.
