coat of arms
Blazon : “Divided by green and blue raised by a fallen silver wavy head. Below the open silver gates of a lock, underneath a silver sturgeon . "
The Wellengöpel represents the mouth of the Bekau, as it can be derived from the name of the municipality. The sturgeon is intended to indicate the location of the community on the river of the same name and the formerly rich sturgeon catches. The two green fields represent agriculture . The lock gates are a reminder of the old lock that stood at the mouth of the Bekau.
