Official blazon

Geteilt von Blau über Silber; oben ein wachsender rechtsgewendeter silberner Löwe, unten zwei blaue Weintrauben mit einem gemeinsamen Stiel.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on June 30, 1993.

The upper part with the silver lion is derived from the medieval arms of the Lords von Guthmannshausen, who originated from the area and had their estate in the village. The grapes in the base are a symbol of St. Wigbert, the patron saint of the oldest church in the village.
