Königs Wusterhausen Coat of Arms

Shield Argent, issuant from base part of the northern hemisphere with oceans Vert, continents Or and lines of longitude and latitude Sable, issuant from hemisphere three radio towers Gules.
Meaning:
Since 1320 a castle of the Margarves of Brandenburg is mentioned near the Slavic village (Wendisch-)Wustrow. Since 1375 a namesake German village was mentioned as (Deutsch-)Wustrow. The names were changed to Wendisch-Wusterhausen and Deutsch-Wusterhausen. The name was referring to abandoned land. In the middle oft he 17th century both villages became dominions under direct rule of the Electors of Brandenburg. The Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm I (1713 - 1740) made the village his favourite residence. Since 1718 the villages were called Königs Wusterhausen (= The King's Wusterhausen). The colour of the oceans had been blue probably until 1992. At least until 1925 (painted by Otto Hupp) the arms just displayed a linden with leaves Vert and trunk Or. The towers and the hemisphere refer to the fact that in Königs Wusterhausen first German radio broadcasting started on 22 December 1920. In times of the GDR the towers also stressed the importance of terrestrial radiocommunication for the purpose of connecting peoples.
