coat of arms

The coat of arms was approved on April 14, 1966.

Blazon : "In gold a red göpel, accompanied on the left by a three-leaved blue oak branch, on the right by a blue clover leaf, below by three continuous blue wavy threads."

Ladelund, founded as a farming village, is first mentioned in 1552. The place name is of Danish origin, made up of the components "lade" meaning "barn" and "lund" meaning "forest". As a result, the oak branch is to be understood as a visual implementation of the place name. Like many other settlements in the country, Ladelund was created through clearing in the middle of a forest area. Fossil tree stumps uncovered during tillage are evidence of this. The shamrock in the coat of arms is a symbol of the rural use of the village hall. The soil that has been made arable for pastures and fields has been increased in its yield since the 19th century by the method of marl. Three lakes have emerged from Mergelkuhlen on the Feldmark, which are represented in the coat of arms by the three wave threads. Emerged as a by-product of soil cultivation, the lakes have a high recreational value today. The red Göpel is the stylized representation of a house gable and thus to be regarded as a farmhouse or, with regard to the place name, as a barn. The golden shield color emphasizes the agricultural structure and the crop yield. The color scheme as a whole indicates the location of the municipality in the district of North Friesland.

The coat of arms was designed by the Brunsbüttel heraldist Willy "Horsa" Lippert .

flag

The flag was approved on May 27, 2004. On a yellow flag cloth the figures of the municipal coat of arms in tincture suitable for the flag.
