Wappen Landkreis Hildesheim (Germany) Decal Design

This striking decal presents the official coat of arms of Landkreis Hildesheim, a district in Lower Saxony, Germany. The design is a powerful visual representation of the region's rich history and the confluence of its major historical influences.

Design Elements and Symbolism

The artwork is divided vertically, embodying a classic heraldic approach known as "per pale." The left (dexter) side of the design features a vibrant red field (Gules) bearing a prominent silver (Argent) cross. This cross is the iconic emblem of the Prince-Bishopric of Hildesheim, signifying the area's deep-rooted ecclesiastical and cultural heritage. It stands as a testament to the influence of the Bishopric, one of the oldest dioceses in Germany.

The right (sinister) side showcases a gold (Or) field emblazoned with two majestic blue (Azure) lions "passant guardant," meaning they are walking and looking forward. These lions, armed and langued (tongues) in red, are the heraldic symbol of the Duchy of Brunswick-LĂĽneburg (House of Welf), representing secular power, strength, and nobility. They speak of the Welf's lasting impact on the region.

Historical Context in Design

The combination of these two elements, the cross and the lions, serves as a powerful symbol of the historical coexistence and eventual unity of the ecclesiastical and secular powers that shaped the Hildesheim region. It reflects the merging of the old districts and the official grant of the coat of arms in 1980, creating a united identity rooted in the past. This design speaks to the unique heritage of Landkreis Hildesheim.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
