Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 13, 1986.

The arms show the cross of the State of Köln, to which the area historically belonged until 1803. The second quarter is based on the arms of the von Schoenebeck family, who had an estate in Johannisberg in the municipality. The base shows the local fountain, which, according to legend, had healing waters.
