coat of arms

Tessenow coat of arms
Blazon : "In silver, a slanted blue wavy strip, accompanied: above by a rising red unicorn up front, below by a bulbous red bottle."

The coat of arms and the flag were designed by the Schwerin heraldist Karl-Heinz Steinbruch . It was approved on September 20, 2000 by the Ministry of the Interior and registered under the number 226 of the coat of arms of the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

Reasons for the coat of arms: The wave bar in the coat of arms symbolizes the Moosterbach flowing through the corridor. The unicorn is borrowed from the coat of arms of the von Restorf family, which for a long time co-determined the development of Tessenow and Malow. The bottle is intended to refer to the Polish glassworks, which was operated by a member of the probably most important glassmaking families in Mecklenburg, Hans Jürgen Kauffeldt .

With the merger of the three municipalities of Marnitz, Suckow and Tessenow to form the new municipality of Ruhner Berge, the municipal coat of arms lost its status as a national emblem on January 1, 2019. However, it can still be used by the residents as an identification symbol and as a sign of solidarity with their place.
