====Origin/meaning====
====Origin/meaning====
I have no information on the origin or meaning of these arms. Any information is welcome !
The arms show a wavy bend for the Wied river. The lion is taken from the arms of the Counts of Sayn, to which the area historically belonged. The lower half shows a crescent and three stras, which is derived from the watermark of the largest former papermill in the village. The three stars also refer to the three mills in the village.
