Henstedt-Ulzburg Municipal Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
In a silver shield is a green branch of oak with three leaves between a red mural crown with five pinnacles (above) and two blue barrulets wavy.
Meaning:
The barrulets are symbolizing the fountain of Alster River and the Bek, downstream becoming the Pinnau River. The mural crown is alluding to the medieval Olzeborch castle. The owners are unknown. The central element is symbolizing the merger of the former municipalities of Henstedt, Ulzburg and Götzburg.
