Official blazon

(de) In Silber mit einem rotbordierten Schildhaupt, das durch einen roten Pfahl gespalten und mit zwei roten Andreaskreuzen belegt ist, auf einem grünen Schildfuß ein schwarzer, linksschreitender Eber mit goldener Bewehrung

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on July 15, 1994.

The wild boar is taken from the seal of the village used until 1952. It probably symbolises the rich wildlife in the nearby forests. The chief symbolises the typical Fachwerk architecture in the area. The two crosses stand for the two villages in the municipality.
