RENDSBURG
State : Schleswig-Holstein
District (Kreis) : Rendsburg-Eckernförde (until 1970 Rendsburg)
Official blazon
In Silber über abwechselnd silbernen und blauen Wellen eine rote, freistehende Ziegelburg mit Zinnenmauer, drei mit blauen Spitzdächern versehenen Zinnentürmen, davon der mittlere etwas höher und breiter, und mit offenem Tor, darin das holsteinische Wappen (in Rot das silberne Nesselblatt).
Origin/meaning
Rendsburg received city rights in 1250, and the first seal dates probably from the same time, but it is not known until 1334. The second, 14th century, seal showed the same image; the Reinholdsburg castle, built on the border between the counties Schleswig and Holstein. The city remained of strategic importance until the 19th century. The small arms of the Counts of Holstein was added in the gate in 1580.During the centuries the number of waves, the shape of the castle and the colours have changed many times. The present arms were granted on December 30, 1964, in the main colours of Holstein.
