coat of arms

Description of the coat of arms : In gold, two upright, turned away, red- reinforced black bear paws with red cut surfaces, in the middle a black bishop's staff growing out of the lower edge of the shield with a bend open to the left.

Symbolism: The bear paws indicate the former rule of the Counts of Hoya. The coat of arms colors black and gold are based on the coat of arms colors of the Hoya counts. The bishop's staff is supposed to establish the relationship with the collegiate church and the Archdiocese of Bremen. The execution of the coat of arms is closely based on the stain seal of Bücken from 1413.
