Origin/meaning
Ottenstein developed as a village around the castle built in the 13th century by the Counts of Everstein. Ottenstein had its own council, but no seals are known. The present arms are granted in 1962 and show the chapel from the local cemetery. This chapel was originally the church of an old village, Hattensen, which was destroyed in 1406. The branch is a cherry branch and symbolises the many cherry trees grown in the village.
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
