Origin/meaning
The arms are a combination of the arms of two families that owned the local castle Wildenwart. The main part of the shield is derived from the Wildenwart family who owned the castle in the late Middle Ages. The symbol in the lower part of the arms is a canting symbol for the Schurf family. It shows a fire-iron or Schurfeisen in German. The Schurf family owned the castle in later times.
