===Origin/meaning=== | |||
Bremerhaven was founded in 1827 and became a city in 1851. | |||
Until the merger with Wesermünde, the city used the arms of Bremen or the arms of Bremen with a cross in chief. | |||
In 1939 Bremerhaven merged with Wesermünde to form the new city of Wesermünde. In 1947 Wesermünde was renamed again to Bremerhaven. The arms were granted at the same time and show a ship with three sails with the arms of Lehe (knives), Geestemünde (anchor) and key (Bremerhaven). The knives, anchor and fish were already part of the arms of Wesermünde. | In 1939 Bremerhaven merged with Wesermünde to form the new city of Wesermünde.
