As there were no historical seals or arms known for the village, canting arms were designed in 1959. The name can be derived from Aal-hausen (Eel-house), hence a swimming eel and a house. The eel also appeared on the seal of the local Lords of Olnhausen from the 13th century. The colours of their arms were not known, but they used a silver and blue banner, from which the colours of the village arms were derived.
