After the end of the Hildesheim collegiate feud , the place fell to the Principality of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel from 1523 to 1643 , after which the areas were returned to the Diocese of Hildesheim. After the end of the French era , Heere belonged to the Kingdom of Hanover and from 1866 to Prussia . In 1941, due to the Salzgitter Act , Heere was added to the state of Braunschweig and the district of Wolfenbüttel , which became part of the new state of Lower Saxony on November 1, 1946 .

coat of arms

Blazon : split by red and gold with a tournament hat in different colors.

The tournament hat is taken from a seal from 1293, which was carried by the noble family "von Heere", who lived here from the 12th to the 16th century. The division of the shield in two stands for the two formerly independent communities large and small armies, which now live “under one roof”. The division also stands for the changing affiliation of the place to the duchy of Hildesheim and the duchy of Braunschweig. The colors red and gold were used by both the Hildesheimers and the Brunswickers and were at the same time the standard colors of the House of Heere. The coat of arms was approved by the Wolfenbüttel district in August 1988.
