Origin/meaning
The town is first mentioned as having a council in the 13th century and gradually became a possession of the Counts of Bentheim. In the middle of the 17th century the first seal was made.

The municipality nowadays uses the arms again placed in a shield as a mis-interpretation of the true arms :
