Wappen von Mauel

Official blazon

Von Rot über Silber geteilt durch schrägrechten blau-silbernen Wellenbalken, vorn grüner Eichenzweig mit einem Blatt und zwei Eicheln, hinten drei goldene Ähren.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on February 16, 2009.

The wavy bend symbolises the Prüm river. The colours red and silver are those of the Prüm Abbey, to which the village belonged in medieval times. The wheat and the acorn refer to agriculture and forestry, the main economic activities of the village for many centuries.

The oak also refers to the Napoleon Oak, a natural monumnet under which, according to legend, Napoleon (or part of his troops) camped in the early 19th century.
