A coat of arms, pillar and three double rostra of galleys.. first i thought it had something to do with the forum romanum. It was ususal to saw off the naval rams of enemy ships and show it publicly..

But this is the coat of arms of Franz Ritter v. Hipper, also the one of WW II heavy cruiser »Admiral Hipper« (the one that survived the brave »Glowworm«, and whose Captain Hellmuth Heye reported the fate of the Glowworm and Commander Gerard Roope via the red cross to the british admiralty). Was not aware that it had been the Hipper

If i am right i would like someone else to continue, i have no time until in two days ahead
