Unter silbernem Schildhaupt, darin eine linksgewendete, liegende schwarze Damwildschaufel, in Grün ein silberner Mühlstein.

The arms were granted on July 21, 1992.

The upper part of the arms shows an antler as a symbol for the rich nature in the surrounding woods. The millstone in the lower half symbolises the watermill in the Mühlenau, which still exists.
