Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on February 20, 1979.

The village belonged for nearly 600 years to the State of Mainz, which is symbolised by the wheel of Mainz in the lower half. The uppe rpart shows a pair of scissors for the traditional tailors in the village and the later textile industry. The bars refer to the shape of the local field, which form horizontal bars in the landscape (Streifengüter). The wavy bar refers to the -bach (stream) part of the name.
