Origin/meaning
The arms were first granted in 1937 and based on the seal of the municipality, the colours were not described and the above arms were finally granted in 1969. The arms are most likely derived from the arms of the diocese and city of Münster, as the village belonged to Münster and the bishops had a hunting castle near the village. The arms were first seen in a seal dating from 1485 from the local judge. In the 1930s Hupp showed arms with a cross, which was based on the local seal from 1703. Hupp linked the cross to the cross of Meppen, but gave no further evidence or history.
