Origin/meaning
The two boat hooks are the symbol of St. Adalbert, patron saint of the cathedral of Lebus, and also used by the Diocese of Lebus. The Landkreis Seelow was the successor of the Lebus district.
The golden colour in the old arms refers to the rich fields and the hooks also refer to the importance of fisheries in the Oder river.
After the German unification the district was restructured and hence new arms were adopted with the same compositin, but in different colours.
