coat of arms
The municipal coat of arms was adopted in 1938 by the Council of the Municipality Nordleda.
Blazon : "In red over a green shield base coveredwith a silver wavy bar ,a silver rafter , accompanied by three silver stars (2: 1)." | |
Justification for the coat of arms: The river visible in the green base of the shield is intended to give an indication of the development of the Nordleda community. The first settlements there arose on the natural waterway of the old Lee (Leh). The rafter with the three stars in the upper part of the coat of arms is the Lappesche coat of arms. In old chronicles the Lappes are mentioned as the first and most respected clan of Northern Leda, who were extremely involved in the settlement. In 1342 a knight Konrad Lappe had the patronage of the St. Nicolai Church in Nordleda. A Wölke Lappe fell off Nordleda after the fall of Ritzebuettel in 1395. |
