Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on October 7, 2002.
The village is situated on the border of Thüringen, Hessen and Niedersachsen, which is symbolised by the division of the shield and the red dot. The goose ('Gander") is a canting element, the oak leaves refer to the local forests and the Eichsfeld district. The three crescents are taken from the arms of the Lords von Hanstein, lords of the village in the 14th century.
