Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 19, 1952.

The arms show on the right the fountain with the lion, taken from the arms and seal of Alsenborn (to which Enkenbach historically belonged), and on the left the church of Enkenbach. The church of Enkenbach dates from the 13^th century and was part of the large abbey in the town.
