The Lindånæsbro bridge located in the municipality connects the peninsulas Angel and Svans .

In the municipality there are several dowels from the Peasant Stone Age and a so-called gallery Dutch mill , built in 1837 .

During renovations from 1938 to 1950, the baroque galleries and boxes were removed and the windows were made smaller, so it has been preserved in a relatively pure Romanesque style.

The central figure of the wagon wheel is taken from the coat of arms of the old municipality of Kiesbye.

The five-spoked wheel is intended to represent trade, crafts, agriculture and tourism in general - and with equal importance.

The sheaf made of five ears of corn refers to agriculture, which still characterizes the municipality in large parts today.

The wavy bars symbolize the spring "Borne" near the "Thinkplatz", where court was held and where horses were watered in the Middle Ages.
