Meaning:
The red bend is symbolising nowadays federal road no.4, the connection between Altona and Kiel, the preceding road had been erected in 1840 as the first "highway" in Schleswig-Holstein. Bilsen belonged from 1385 to 1803 to the domains of Harvestehude Monastery, later St. John's Monastery in Hamburg. This is symbolised by the cross fleury, because the fleur de lis was an attribute of patron saint St.Mary. The leaf is symbolising the forestal riches of the Bilsener Wohld in the 19th century. The colours red, white and blue are those of Schleswig-Holstein.
