Origin/meaning

The arms were probably devised in 1648 after the granting of the city rights. The roe (Reh) and castle (Burg) are canting symbols. The oldest seal dating from the end of the 17^th century already shows the same image. The arms have thus not basically changed since. The nearby spa Bad Rehburg used similar arms.

Seal from around 1900
