The coat of arms of East Frisia on the building of the Ostfriesische Landschaft in Aurich (Lower Saxony). The six-field coat of arms of the East Frisian house of counts and princes was introduced in 1625 and combines the coats of arms of the most important East Frisian chieftain families and the parts of the country they originally ruled.
The leading chieftain family and later princes were the Cirksena.
