Origin/meaning

All seals of the town, dating from 1511 until the late 19^th century show the village sign of Muggensturm in or without a shield. It is described as a wagon-plug. In 1900 the municipality proposed to add a rose, taken from the arms of the Lords of Eberstein. The village historically belonged to the county Eberstein. The State Archives approved the arms which were taken into use in January 1901.
