Origin/meaning

The chevron forms a corner, which is Winkel in German and thus a canting element. The waves refer to the local streams and rivers. The wheatears refer to the importance of agriculture. The lion's head is taken from the arms of the Counts of Sayn, to which the area historically belonged.
