Description of coat of arms:
Shield parted per pale of Or and Gules, charged with a trefoil Vert with contorted stem.
Meaning:
Sarstedt gained city rights in 1296 by Bishop Siegfried II of Hildesheim. At the same time the first seal was made, displaying a castle with three towers over a wavy line, symbolising Innerste River. The lower central tower was crowned by St. Anthony with crozier and book in a seal from the 15th century. The current arms developed in the 17th century and were also displayed in later seals. The colours are those of the Bishopric of Hildesheim. The trefoil was a local symbol. The flag colours are those of the Bishopric of Hildesheim.
