||The coat of arms shows two [[griffin]]s. The golden griffin to the left is the symbol of Princes of [[Rostock]]. The black griffin to the right derives from the coat of arms of Pomerania, which however used a red griffin as their symbol. The territory of the district was ruled by a branch of the Dukes of Pomerania which used a black griffin.

The coat of arms was granted on December 3, 1997.
