Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on February 2, 1989.

The quartered shield symbolises the four villages in the municipality; Bohnert, Kosel, Missunde and Weseby.

In the middle of the shield a red stone with a cross is placed. This stone can be seen on the main gate of the church in Kosel. As the church was the main church in the area, it was chosen as a central symbol. The cross again symbolises the four villages.
