Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 11, 1977.

The new arms combine the swords of the old arms with a canting clover (Klee-blatt) from the previous arms of Niederkleen, Oberkleen and Cleeberg.

The previous arms were granted in 1954.

The two crossed swords are taken from the arms of the medieval Lords of Göns, who ruled the village until 1587. The base shows the local Hüttenberg hill.
