OBERREIDENBACH
State : Rheinland-Pfalz
District (Kreis) : Birkenfeld
Verbandsgemeinde : Herrstein
German | In gespaltenem Schild vorne ein silberner Balken in Rot, begleitet oben von einem silbernen Löwenkopf nach links, unten von einem silbernen Eichblatt, hinten blau-golden geschacht. |

Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on October 14, 1964.
The upper right corner shows a lion's head, which is based on the statue of a lion's head in the village church. This statue probably dates from the time the village was settled and used to be connected to the local watch tower. The silver bend symbolises the Reidenbach river, whereas the oak leaf symbolises the old Kaisereiche tree in the village. The left half shows the chequered field of the Counts of Sponheim, who ruled the area for many centuries.
