Official blazon

• (de) In Schwarz ein rotgekrönter und bewehrter goldener Löwe, überdeckt von einem silbernen schräg linken Wellenbalken.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on July 18, 1975.

The arms show the lion of the Pfalz with a wavy bend as a canting element (Bach is stream, brook).

Previously the village used a tulip in the arms, taken from an 18^th century seal. The arms with the tulip were not officially granted.
