Wappen von Börde
Official blazon
German

In Rot ein reitender silberner Krieger, die gesenkte Knebellanze in der Rechten und mit dem Rundschild am linken Arm den oberen Teil des gegürteten Schwertes verdeckend, der gezäumte silberne Hengst schreitend auf einer zum Mäander gewundenen silbernen Schlange, deren Kopf sich am linken Schildrand abwärts in den Schildfuß senkt.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on August 8, 2007.

The arms are based on stone, discovered in 1874 in the region, showing a knight. The stone probably dates from around 800 and symbolises the fact that the present district corresponds to the medieval region Ostfalen. The knight thus symbolises Ostfalen.

A similar design, but with a different origin, was used by the former district of Neuhaldensleben.
