Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on January 23, 1956.
The mountain is a canting element (Berg), the trees are a symbol for the former forests in the area. The deer symbolises the former Imperial hunting estate in the forests.
As with all arms of the Berlin districts, a mural crown with a small shield with the arms of Berlin coan be used.
