The crescent as symbol for the village is known since 1830, when it appears (horizontally) on the local seal. The seal shows the arms covered with a crown. The crescent was also used in the 19<sup>th</sup> century as the village symbol on border stones. In 1853 the mayor reports that the symbol has been for a very long time, but that its origin is not known. | The crescent as symbol for the village is known since 1830, when it appears (horizontally) on the local seal.
