WILSTER
State : Schleswig-Holstein
District (Kreis) : Steinburg
Official blazon
Geteilt von Rot und Blau. Oben ein silbernes Nesselblatt, belegt mit einem von Silber und Rot geteilten Schildchen, unten schwimmend auf silbernen Wellen ein silberner Fisch.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on June 13, 1902.
Wilster received city rights in 1282 from Count Gerhard II of Holstein. The oldest seal of the city dates from the same time and showed already in the upper half the arms of the Counts of Holstein, and in the lower half a fish in the sea. The latter symbolises the importance of fishing in the Wilsterau. The composition was placed on a shield on the 17th century seals. The composition thus did not change since, but the size and shape of the figures have changed considerably.
