coat of arms
The coat of arms was approved by the Ministry of the Interior on November 15, 2011 and registered under the number 340 of the coat of arms of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
Blazon : “Divided by gold and blue, on top of it two crooked sticks, crossed diagonally, divided by red and gold, with turned crook. Above is a gold-crowned black bull's head looking forward with a closed mouth, a knocked-out red tongue and silver horns; below a torn, red-tongued, golden griffin head. "
The symbolism of the coat of arms with the Werler bull's head refers to the earlier affiliation of large parts of today's district to the Werle rule from 1229 to 1436. A griffin head, which is also shown, is intended to refer to the affiliation of large parts of the current district area to the Rostock rule after the large main division of the state in 1229. Two crossed bishop's staffs give an indication of the extensive land ownership of the Doberan Monastery , which was both the home monastery and burial place of the Mecklenburg Princely House.
The coat of arms was designed by the Freudenberg heraldist Manfred Gerth.
flag
The flag of the district of 'Rostock' is evenly divided lengthways by yellow and blue. The stripes are covered with the figures of the coat of arms: two diagonally crossed crooks, divided by red and yellow, with turned curvature, which take up 1/3 the height and 2/3 the length of the flag cloth; in the middle of the yellow stripe a looking, gold-crowned black bull's head with a closed mouth, a knocked out red tongue and silver horns and in the middle of the blue stripe a torn, red-tongued, golden griffin head, which occupy 3/4 of the respective stripe. The height of the flag is related to the length like 2 to 3.
Protected areas
There are 44 designated nature reserves in the district (as of February 2017).
License Plate

As a result of the license plate liberalization , the distinctive signs BÜZ (Bützow), DBR , GÜ , ROS (Rostock, for the then district) and TET (Teterow) have been available since March 18, 2013 .
