Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on October 6, 1982.

The upper half shows the lion of the Pfalz, as the village became part of the Pfalz in 1497.

The lower half is taken from the oldest known seal of the village, dating from 1668. The meaning of the symbols is unknown, but the combination remained in use in the 18th and 19th century.
