Arms: "In Grün unter einem aus drei Tragsteinen und einer Deckplatte bestehenden silbernen Steingrab schräg gekreuzt eine goldene Ähre und ein aufrechtes goldenes Schwert."

The dolmen represents the "Brutkamp", one of the most important burial sites of northern Germany. The sword refers to the sword dance of Ditmarschen, danced in Albertsdorf, and to the army base, then the largest employer of Albertsdorf but closed in the beginning of the 21st century. The ear of grain expresses the importance agriculture as a field of employment, to the present day. Albertsdorf's attractive landscape and status of forest-rich climatic spa are expressed by the green of the field.

Flag: "Inmitten eines weißen, oben und unten von einem grünen Streifen begrenzten Flaggentuches das Gemeindewappen, etwas zur Stange hin verschoben."
On a white field bounded at the top and bottom by green stripes, the municipal arms shifted slightly towards the hoist.
