Stendal Coat of Arms

[Stendal CoA] image by Jörg Majewski, 19 Jan 2007

Shield parted per pale; at dexter Argent a demi-eagle Gules, armed Or and couped per pale; at sinister parted per fess; above Azure a trefoil Or surrounded by three oak leaves Argent pointing to the trefoil; beneath Sable three lozenges Or ordered 2:1.
Meaning:
The red demi-eagle couped per pale is a modification of the arms of the Margraves of Brandenburg, former rulers for many centuries. He replaces the demi-eagles in the pre-1994 counties of Stendal and Osterburg.The upper sinister quarter displays the family arms of the Bismarck kin and is representing the former Stendal County. The lower sinister part displays the personal arms of Count Siegfried of Osterburg, known from his seal from 1214 and is representing the former Osterburg County. A draft divided the sinister half by an additional barrulet wavy Argent as a representation of the former Havelberg County, which had no proper arms. But this draft had never been adopted.

Flag, banner and arms were approved on 20 December 1995. Klaus-Michael Schneider, 11 Aug 2018

The flag was adopted on 17 November 1990 by the county council. The arms were approved on 31 July 1937 by Prussian Minister of State and re-adopted by the county council on 17 November 1990. The approval of 1937 required an Iberian shield (German: Halbrundschild), which was not adopted in 1990 and replaced by the version displayed here.

Meaning:
