Origin/meaning
The red colour refers to the County Sayn-Hachenburg, to which the area belonged until 1799. In the 19th century the area was part of the Duchy of Nassau, and the blue colour is the colour of Nassau.
The first quarter refers to the agricultural character of the village. The second quarter symbolises the Wied river, which flows through the municipality. The blue water mill wheel refers to the historical mwater mill in the Wied river. The miner's tools refer to the slate mining in the region.
The division line refers to the unique situation that Borod had a (city)wall until 1782, even though it never received any town or city rights.
