Coat of arms from 1951 to 1966
In 1951, on the initiative of Rudolf Dehnke, representative for local history in the Peine district, a coat of arms was designed and recognized by the local council. It shows two poplars with roots that have grown together (red on a yellow background), which stood as landmarks on the bridges of the dirt roads.
Coat of arms since 1966
After the poplars of the coat of arms were received for reasons of age, a new coat of arms was commissioned and donated by Arthur Rühmann, a resident of the village, on February 26, 1966.
It shows a background of red and gold, as a reference to the colors of the bishopric and the city of Hildesheim . In the shield head of the coat of arms are three red iron hats , the middle shows a crook as a reference to the secular and clerical rulers from Hildesheim, the scythe leaves flank the coat of arms as a reference to an agricultural place.
