In the coat of arms of 2013, the ancient Egyptian sailing ship was displaced
in the foot of the coat of arms on the water in front of a quay wall. The main
motif is a mosque with two cogwheels on the front of the minaret between two
balustrades. The entire representation is surrounded by a wreath of ears of corn
and raised by the Egyptian heraldic shield.
