TETEROW
State :Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
District (Kreis) : Rostock (until 2011 Güstrow)
Official blazon
In Gold ein vorwärts gekehrter blauer Topfhelm mit zwei an gekreuzten blauen Stäben befestigten grünen Pfauenfederrosetten mit goldenen Butzen, begleitet: oben von einem facettierten blauen Stern, beiderseits von einem roten Tatzenkreuz.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on April 10, 1858.
Teterow received city rights in 1272 from Nikolaus I, Lord of Werle. The city remained in the hands of the Lords of Werle until 1436, when it became a possession of the Dukes of Mecklenburg. The arms are based on the seal of the city known since 1353 and show the helmet and crest of the Lords of Werle. The star and the two crosses are probably used on the seal as decoration, without any further meaning.
In 1943 Teterow adopted new arms with a pike, with a bell on its neck. These arms were abandoned after the war in 1945. I have no image of those arms.
