The shield is divided by five alternating, silver and blue, wavy bends sinister. Above right in a red field is a golden (= yellow), rooted oak. Below left in a green field is a golden (= yellow) hatchet.
Meaning:

This is symbolised by the oak tree and the hatchet as the proper instrument of uprooting. The wavy bends are symbolising the little Schwentine river and two of her tributaries.

The windmill is the mill of Brodau, which was built in 1864 by the engineer Carl-Friedrich Thran from nearby Neustadt. The fleur de lis is an attribute of St. Gertrud. Before Schashagen was sold to Heinrich Rantzau in 1530, the village was a property of St. Gertrud's chapel in Neustadt.

In the base a green mountain with three peaks is superimposed by a golden (= yellow) cross bottony (German: Mauritiuskreuz). Above is an impending, symmetric, green branch of oak, consisting of four leaves and two acorns, which is topped by a red heraldic rose, barbed green and seeded golden (= yellow).
Meaning:
Mountain, branch and oak together are canting. The rose represents "beauty" (German: Schönheit), the oak represents wood (German: Wald) and mountain is representing the local Bungsberg, the highest "mountain" all over Schleswig-Holstein. The cross reminds on Schönwalde as a foundation of the monks of Cismar in the 12th century. The number of oak leaves is representing the former entities, which merged in 1938, forming nowadays Schönwalde. Schönwalde is the capital of the subcounty.
