Geteilt und oben gespalten. Vorn in Silber ein blaues Zahnrad, hinten in Blau auf goldener Scholle ein Bündel von fünf goldenen Ähren und goldenen Blättern; unten in Rot auf golden gezäumtem silbernen Roß der silbern gekleidete heilige Martin mit Mitra und Schwert, darunter auf silbernem Boden sitzend ein silberner Bettler mit goldener Krücke. Origin/meaning The arms were granted on November 8, 1909. The arms show in the base of the shield the local patron saint, St. Martin. The image of the saint already appears on the oldest known seal of the local parish from 1631. The upper half of the arms show symbols for agriculture and industry.
