coat of arms

The draft of the municipal coat of arms of Dahlum comes from the Wolfenbüttel State Archives .

On March 1, 1974, through a merger of the localities of Groß Dahlum and Klein Dahlum, the municipality of Dahlum was created. The district of Wolfenbüttel approved the wish of the community to continue the old coat of arms of Groß Dahlum, which was approved by the Lower Saxony Minister of the Interior on October 31, 1952 .

Dahlum coat of arms
 Blazon : "In the divided shield above in red a striding right-wing golden lion , below in gold,two black rafters sprinkledwith red hearts on the field."
Justification of the coat of arms: The lion, which is depicted welfisch , indicates the centuries-long rule of the Brunswick state , which was exercised here at the seat of the Voigtdahlum office . The lower part of the shield shows the coat of arms of the noble von Dahlum family , who had their ancestral seat in the municipality.

Culture and sights
