Official blazon

German	Unter silbernem Schildhaupt, darin ein grüner Forsthaken, in Rot drei fächerförmig gestellte zweizeilige Ähren.
English	blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on September 24, 1974.

The hook is a symbol that the villagers had rights in the Märkerwald forest. It also indicates the -holz (wood, forest) part of the name. The base shows three wheatears for the agricultural character of the three villages in the municipality. The red and silver are the colours of the County Wied, to which the area historically belonged.
