SEFFERWEICH
State : Rheinland-Pfalz
District (Kreis) : Bitburg-Prüm (until 1970 Bitburg)
Verbandsgemeinde : Verbandsgemeinde Bitburg-Land
Origin/meaning :
The arms were granted on September 10, 1993.
The crosier is a symbol for the nearly 1000 years that the area belonged to the Prüm abbey.
The bends are derived from the arms of the 15th century Von Orwich family, who lived in the village. The old name of the village was Orwich or Urwich.
Literature : Wappenbuch der Verbandsgemeinde Bitburg-Land 1995.
