Official blazon

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on June 30, 1938.

In the village there is the so-called Scheidebrunnen, a spring (fountain). People visited the spring to pray for faithfulness until the death. This is symbolised by the two rings on a blue bar.

Literature : Barner, 1953
