Origin/meaning

The arms were adopted in 1904. As no older arms or seals were known, the arms were newly devised. The arms are based on the arms of Diezo von Ror, who ruled the village and whose seal is known from 1384. As no colours were known the colours were chosen arbitrarily.


Literature : Bardua, 1973.
