Official blazon

Im blauen Schild mit goldenem Innenbord zwei schräggekreuzte silberne Vorlegemesser mit dreimal schwarz genagelten goldenen Griffen.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on June 14, 2001.

The arms are based on the arms of the Stift Quedlinburg, which were (probably) granted in 1541 to the village by Abbess Anna II. zu Stolberg. In 2001 they were officially granted again.
