Wappen von Gerach (bei Idar-Oberstein)

Official blazon

(de)

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on June 25, 1962.

The arms combine in the lower half the chequered field of the Counts of Sponheim, to which the area historically belonged, with miner's tools in the upper part. Mining was of great importance to the village. The crosier in the base refers to the fact that the village was the seat of the 'In der Abtei' (in the Abbey) court of the County of Sponheim.
