coat of arms

The cross stands for the stone atonement crosses that were once set up on the edge of the village and which now stand in front of the church. It also symbolizes the influence that church institutions have exerted on the village for centuries and that they have long been among the landlords of the village. The gable above the cross represents a roof or a house and thus symbolizes the term village in the place name. Since 1748, blue and yellow have been the colors of the Duchy and Free State of Braunschweig, to which Hallendorf belonged for a long time.

The coat of arms was adopted as the local coat of arms of Salzgitter-Hallendorf at a meeting of representatives of all local associations on October 25, 1994.
