politics
coat of arms
The “coat of arms” of the community cannot be heraldically described and is therefore not a coat of arms in the actual sense, but rather to be assigned to the image seals. It was elected by the community after the Second World War in the absence of official seals that are free from National Socialist and Imperial symbols and is still used today.
The picture seal shows the centuries-long struggle of the Moorhusener with the water in the low-lying marshland and moor areas . Shown in the form of a dike and scoop mills .
Personalities
The architect Emil Thormählen was born in Moorhusen in 1859.
