Shield Vert, a pale Argent charged with a pallet Sable, at dexter a tower Or with stairs of the same and port and windows Sable, at sinister a wheat sheaf Or with six ears.
Meaning:
The pale is symbolising the highway A2 crossing the municipality. The tower is a representation of the Bismarck-Tower and also representing the former Hohe Börde Administrative Community (German: Verwaltungsgemeinschaft). The wheat sheaf is representing the former Nördliche Börde Administrative Community (German: Verwaltungsgemeinschaft), which merged with Hohe Börde on 20 September 2004. Each wheat ear is representing one of its former municipalities:  Ackendorf, Bebertal, Bornstedt, Nordgermersleben, Rottmersleben and Schackensleben. The green colour is symbolising the fertile soil of the Magdeburg Börde.
