JOHANNISBERG
State : Hessen
District (Kreis) : Rheingau-Taunus Kreis (until 1973 Rheingaukreis)
Incorporated into : 1972 Geisenheim
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on September 15, 1958.
The town belonged to the State of Mainz from the 14th century until 1802. The arms thus show the wheel of the State of Mainz, but in opposite colours since the mid 19th century. The use of the wheel as village symbol is known since 1550.
