Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on August 11, 2010.

The wavy bend refers to the two brooks in the municipality, the Primmer Bach and the Kessel bach. The cross is a local monument, which has been in the village for a long time. The wheatears refer to the agricultural character of the village. The red and silver colours are the colours of the COunty of Vianden, to which the village belonged in medieval times.
