The arms were adopted in 1911. The village was founded in the 18<sup>th</sup> century and was a possession of the bishops of Speyer until 1806. The oldest seal dates from the early 19<sup>th</sup> century and showed the letters NL and a star. In the arms the cross of the State of [[Speyer]] was combined with the star from the old seal. The meaning of the star is not known, most likely it was just used as decoration. | The arms were adopted in 1911.
