Origin/meaning

Oreussisch Oldendrof received city right sin 1719 from King Friedrich Wilhelm I of Prussia. The area at the time belonged to the County Ravensberg and the oldest seals thus showed the arms of Ravensberg (three chevrons). On February 25, 1910 the present arms were granted and show only a single chevron for Ravensberg. The two keys symbolise the diocese of Minden, to which the parish belongs. The two stars are most likely derived from the arms of Lübbecke.
