Official blazon
In Rot ein spitzbedachtes, mit vier Fialen verziertes und zwei übereinander gestellten Öffnungen versehenen gotisches Portal, belegt mit zwei schräg gegeneinander gestellten Schilden. Vorn in Rot drei übereinanderliegende silberne Sensenklingen (mit der Schneide nach oben gekehrt); hinten in Gold eine rote, nach rechts gebogene, fünfendige Hirschstange.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on March 15, 1997.
Beeskow received city rights in the late 13th century from the Lords of Strehla. In 1477 it became a possession of the Lords of Bieberstein and from 1512-1518 it was part of Sachsen. From 1555 it was part of Brandenburg.
The oldest seal of the city dates from around 1300 and shows a city wall with in the gate a knight with the arms of the Lords of Strehla, three knives. The present arms show a façade of a church with the arms of Strehla and Bieberstein, and thus date from the late 15th century.
