The arms were granted in 1927 and are based on the oldest seal of the town, dating from the late 16<sup>th</sup> century. The two tools in the arms are so-called boat-hooks, used by the local fishermen on the Rhein. The origin and meaning of the stars is not known. The colours are those of the [[Mainz (State)|State of Mainz]], to which the area belonged until 1579. | The arms were granted in 1927 and are based on the oldest seal of the town, dating from the late 16<sup>th</sup> century.
