Description of coat of arms:
In a golden (= yellow) field are eight red leaves connected at their stems and thus forming an 8-point star. The red chief is separated from the golden field by a wavy line.
Meaning:
According to source the leaves are symbolizing the former eight independent municipalities. The connection should symbolize unity and growth of the new city. The wavy line is canting.
(Meer = sea).
