Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on December 23, 1965.

The two antlers symbolise the rich forests and the many deer in the municipality, but also the Hirschberg (Deermountain) in the municipality. The red and silver colours are taken from the arms of Hessen. The base shows a fountain for the mineral spa discovered in 1961. The green colour symbolises the fertile Lahn valley.
