Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on July 5, 1993.

The village of Loose is situated on the sea, between the Schlei and the Eckernförder Bucht (part od the Ostsee). This is symbolised by the rose among two bodies of water. The two leaves symbolise both the forests in the area as well as the two villages, Loose and Loosau. The blue and gold colours are also the colours of Schleswig, to which the municipality belongs.
