In Grün ein breiter silberner Schräglinksbalken, dem ein schräglinks gestelltes blaues Posthorn aufgelegt ist Origin/meaning The arms were officially granted on June 22, 1971. Esselbach is situated on a main road between Würzburg and Frankfurt and had already in the 15th century a postal station founded by the Archbishops of Mainz. The postal station played a major role in the development of the village. The arms thus show the road with a postal horn. The green colour refers to the Spessart nature region.
