Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on January 3, 1950.
The right half of the arms show a hay-shed, which is a canting element (the name is derived from the old word Parac, or hay-shed). The key in the left half is the key of the Worms Abbey, which ruled the village from 1719-1803. The colours are those of Baden.
The village already received arms in 1901, which showed the letter B on the shield of the Wittelsbach family (in silver 24 blue diamonds). The village was from 1380-1803 part of the Pfalz, which was a possession of the Wittelsbach family (see the arms of Bayern).
