Grün über Silber durch goldene Leiste geteilt, oben eine goldene Glocke begleitet von zwei zum Schildrand hin schräg gestellten goldenen Ähren, unten drei schwarze Schrägbalken.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on July 31, 2008.
The bell refers to the former village of Rehnogh, which was destroyed, butthe churchbell, of a rather unusual design, was later found and re-used.
The wheat-ears refer to the agricultural character of the village.
The lower half is derived from the arms of the Von Redekin family, which lived in the village for a long time.
