HUMMELFELD
State : Schleswig-Holstein
District (Kreis) : Rendsburg-Eckernförde
Amt : Amt Schlei-Ostsee (until 2008 Amt Schlei)
Official blazon
In Gold eine grüne Hopfenranke, bestehend aus einem gestürzten Blatt und fünf auswärts weisenden Dolden darüber.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on February 1, 1994.
The arms show a canting hops branch (Humulus lupulus, low-German: Hummel). The name probably has a different origin though.
Literature : Reissmann, 1997
