The arms are based on the arms of the Lords of Brochterbeck, whose arms are known from the 14<sup>th</sup> century. The family became extinct in 1400. The arms showed an anchor, but colours are not known. The wavy bend was added as a canting symbol (Bach=stream) for the village. The blue colour was chosen, as it was the main colour of the County Lingen, to which the village belonged. | The arms are based on the arms of the Lords of Brochterbeck, whose arms are known from the 14<sup>th</sup> century.
