LEMFÖRDE

State : Niedersachsen
District (Kreis) : Diepholz
Samtgemeinde : Samtgemeinde Altes Amt Lemförde

Wappen von Lemförde

Official blazon

(de)

Origin/meaning

The town was built around the castle built by the counts of Diepholz against the bishops of Münster. The castle was named Leuenforde (or Lion-ford), and the lion in the arms is derived from the lion of the counts of Diepholz. The arms were based on a 16th century seal. The present name was adapted in the 18th century to avoid confusion with Lauenförde.
