Description of coat of arms:
In a red shield is a golden (=yellow) fleur de lis. A silver (= white) wavy fess is in the base.
Meaning:
According to source Roggentin belonged to the monastery of Sonnenkamp since 1291, which was maintained by Benedictian nuns. This is symbolized by the lily. The wavy line is symbolizing Kösterbeck creek.
