Official blazon

Von Blau und Gold schräglinks geteilt. Oben eine strahlende goldene Halbsonne, unten eine abnehmende blaue Mondsichel, begleitet von einem achtzackigen blauen Stern.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on January 1, 2008.

The newly formed Amt corresponds nearly completely with the historical ragion of (Nie)Harde. The crescent and star are taken from the oldest seal of the Harde, known since 1499. The division line, colours and the sun are taken from the old arms of Amt Gelting. The Amt Steinbergkirche did not use arms.
