Origin/meaning
The above arms were proposed in 1956, but the arms were only adopted in 1998.
The two black bars are derived from the arms of the Lords of Isenburg-Meerholz, whose arms can be seen on the local townhall, dating from 1733. The are was a loan of the Archbishops of Würzburg, hence the two bars were placed under the arms of the State of Würzburg (red with three silver points).
Literature: Hessisches Ortswappenbuch, 1956.
