Is there any connection with Normandy, or are the two lions a coincidence?
James Dignan, 3 Oct 2007

The coat of arms shows the castle Neuhaus complete with bell cage and gate drive. The castle was built in 1372 by duke Magnus. The coat of arms with the two leopards is that of the duke. As far as I know the lions don't have connections with Normandy.
