AUGUSTENBORG
Region : Syddanmark
Amt (until 2007) : Sønderjylland
Additions : 1970 Asserballe, Ketting, Notmark
Incorporated into : 2007 Sønderborg
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1966.
The two lances are the symbol for the long local tradition of 'ring-riding', in which a rider tries to lift a small ring from a rope using his lance. The horses symbolise the horse-breeding station founded at the Augustenborg castle in 1820.
