Object history
Deutsch: Das Wappen wurde am 23. Mai 1950 durch das Innenministerium des Landes Niedersachsen verliehen, nachdem es bereits 1947 in der Hauptsatzung festgelegt worden war. Am 16. Dezember 1961 wurde es überarbeitet und durch das Regierungspräsidium Lüneburg neu verliehen. Wolf und Burg stehen redend für den Ortsnamen und erinnern gleichzeitig an das Schloss Wolfsburg, dass seit 1135 nachgewiesen ist. Die Wellen im Schildfuß symbolisieren die Aller. Der rote Schild weißt auf die frühere Landgemeinde Rothehof-Rothenfelde hin.
