| German | Schild gespalten durch eine eingebogene goldene Spitze, darin aus dem Schildrand wachsend ein goldgefugter schwarzer Torbogen (Stolleneingang), der schräg gekreuzte schwarze Hammer und Schlägel umschließt, vorne in Grün eine goldene Ähre, hinten in Rot eine silberne Froschlampe mit goldener Flamme. |

Origin/meaning
The village was for many centuries depending on mining for its economy. Hence the mine entrance, miner's tolls and the lamp. The wheatear symbolises the more recent importance of agriculture for the village. The colours are derived from the arms of the Lords of Gebhardshain and the Counts of Sayn-Altenkirchen, who both had many possessions in the area.
