Coat of Arms

image by Jörg Majewski, 24 Dec 2007

Shield parted per fess, above Azure a horse passant Argent, beneath Or a grain ear Vert in pale superimposed by hammer and mallet Sable in saltire.
Meaning:
The colours blue and yellow had been those of the Free State of Braunschweig and of the Duchy of Braunschweig-Lüneburgto which the county belonged. The horse is taken from the arms of Lower Saxony. Ear and tools are symbolising agriculture and mining of coal and salt.
Flags and arms were approved on 9 July 1952 by Minister of Interior of Lower Saxony.
