Description of coat of arms:
The shield is divided per fess wavy. Above in a golden (= yellow) field are three snowdrops in natural colour ordered horizontally. Below in a green field is a golden (= yellow) sinister facing wolf head armed silver (=white) and tongued red.
Meaning:
The wolf head is a simplification of the arms of the local Woggersin kin. The snowdrops are symbolizing a nearby park, a monument of nature famous for its snowdrops. The wavy line is symbolizing the small Tollense river.
