Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on December 17, 1973.
The right half of the arms shows a tree trunk with four branches, which is derived from the former Lords of Estorf. It is a canting symbol, Ast meaning branch. The left half shows in the upper part two crossed horse-shaped planks, a typical symbol used on the farms in the region and especially in the former municipality of Behrste. The kettle is a canting symbol for the village of Gräpel (this type of kettle is called a Grapen).
