The arms are based on the seals of the old territories (Ämter) Calenberg and Hannover. The whole area historically was ruled by the Welfen dynasty, one of the most influential families in the Northern part of Germany. The right part of the arms thus shows the two lions, taken from the arms of the family. These lions were used in the seals of the Amt Calenberg. The left part shows the lion of the counts of Roden. These counts had their castle in Lauenrode, but were succeeded as rulers of the area by the Welfen in the 13<sup>th</sup> century. The Amt Hannover, however, still used the old lion in its seals. | The arms are based on the seals of the old territories (Ämter) Calenberg and Hannover.
