Blazon:In a red shield is a silver gate without any door. The wall has six pinnacles. There is a silver tower on each side, having two windows each and topped by silver triangular roofs. Between the towers there is the nettle-leaf of the Counts of Holstein. In the open door at the base there stands a silver S-shaped object, which might show the Virgin Mary and Jesus, standing upon a golden crescent moon and flanked by two golden stars on a red background. Below the door is a blue field that is thought to symbolize water.[2]
