Official blazon

In Grün ein stark bewegtes, vorn S-förmiges, hinten M-förmiges schrägrechtes silbernes Band, begleitet oben von einem natürlich tingierten Kiebitz, unten von drei silbernen Rohrkolben mit schwarzen Samenständen.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on July 3, 2000.

The arms show the river Sorge, which meanders through the municipality. The green fields symbolise the nature and agriculture in the municipality, with the reeds as a typical symbol for the nature and the lapwing as a typical bird on the meadows.
