The arms were granted in 1950 and are a combination of the image of the patron saint, St. Martin of Tours, and the arms of the diocese and [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]]. The combination already appears in the oldest known seal of the city, dating from 1424. The city belonged since 1371 to Trier. | The arms were granted in 1950 and are a combination of the image of the patron saint, St. Martin of Tours, and the arms of the diocese and [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]].
