Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on July 8, 1965.

The arms are a combination of the checquered field of the arms of the Counts of Sponheim, to which the area historically belonged, and in the lower half a canting hammer and stone (Stein) symbolising the gemstone industry in the village. The wavy blue bar represents the Nahe river.

Literature : Heyen und Zimmer, 1966
