Official blazon
Geteilt von Gelb mit schwarzem R und von Blau mit halbem gelbem Mühlrad.

The half wheel stands for the corn mill, which apparently was of importance in earlier days. The originals of such a mill can still be seen in the village in 'zur mittleren Mühle' (the middle mill), meaning that there were at least two more mills, an 'upper' and a 'lower' mill.
