Shield Azure, a castle Or with port and windows Azure and two side wings of the same.
Meaning:
Port and windows sometimes are depicted also golden. The arms are based on a city seal, prints are known since 1326. The castle is symbolising Boizenburg as a fortified city and is canting, referring to the syllable "Burg" (= castle).
