The roses are taken from the arms of the Lords of Wildenburg, who owned the region in the late medieval times. The wavy bend symbolises the Wisserbach river in the municipality. The church tower symbolises the local St. Sebastian church, known from 1130 and later rebuilt in Barok style. The tower and the bend also together symbolise the Crottorf castle, which is surrounded by a moat, in the municipality. The red and gold are the colours of the County Sayn, to which the area later belonged. | |||
The lower half symbolises the agricultural character of the municipality. | |||
