Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1936. Twistringen was a town on the border between the State of Münster and the Duchy of Braunschweig-Lüneburg, who both ruled the town for different periods of time.
This complicated history is symbolised by the horse of Niedersachsen, as a symbol for Braunschweig, and the bars of the arms of the State of Münster. The three wheels symbolise the industrialisation of the area in the 20th century.
 The arms used on a postage mark by the municipality |
