Bornhöved was an important meeting point for the nobility of Holstein in the 14<sup>th</sup> century and probably received some form of town or city rights in the 15<sup>th</sup> century. The only historical seal of Bornhöved dates from the 15<sup>th</sup> century and shows a head with a fountain. These symbols are canting, the name is derived from Born=spring and Höved=head. Below the fountain were the arms of the Counts of Holstein. This composition was finally granted as official arms in 1948.
