Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on January 5, 1967.

The silver pale in blue refers to the Counts von der Leye, who ruled the village until the late 18th century. The fleur-de-lis is taken as a symbol for St. Norbert, patron saint of the Wadgassen Abbey, which had many possessions in the village. The division line refers to the -bach (stream, brook) part of the name. The division in three parts refers to the three villages in the municipality; Oberwürzbach, Reichenbrunn and Rittersmühle. The watermill wheel also refers to the latter (Mühle=(water-)mill).
