The magpie is derived from the arms of the medieval Lords of Algermissen. Bertold von Algermissen used in 1345 a shield with three arrows (see [[Bolzum]]), but already in 1350 used Dietrich von Algermissen a magpie in his seal and arms. The meaning of the bird is not known. | The magpie is derived from the arms of the medieval Lords of Algermissen.
