The village had already in the 17<sup>th</sup> century a separate village-seal. It showed the letter R, the initial of the village and was made in 1673. The same letter appears in the new seal from 1837. The letter was placed in a shield, and colours were added in 1910, when the arms were officially granted. The colours are derived from the colours of the arms of the Wittelsbach family, Counts of the Pfalz (see [[Bayern]]). | The village had already in the 17<sup>th</sup> century a separate village-seal.
