Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on December 5, 1950.

The arms are based on the medieval seals of the Von Minnigerode family, dating from the 13th-15^th century. As the present family still uses the hook in their arms, the hook was placed on a golden roundel. The roundel also symbolises a pancake, as the villagers are locally known as Pannkauken.
