Coat of Arms

Description of coat of arms:
In a silver (=white) shield is a green linden tree, which is superimposed by a red, bendy label having four flaps.
Meaning:
According to source the label is taken from the arms of the died out lords of Senden. The linden tree is referring to the fact, that the bishopric of Münster had an inn of court, holding its sessions below a linden tree.

Flag, banner and coat of arms were approved on 15 September 1975 by district governor (Regierungspräsident) of Münster.
