Origin/meaning
The above arms are a proposal from the 1950s and are based on the only known historical seal of the village. The seal dates from 1574 and shows a seal with an arrow. As supporter the St. Mary with child was used. The latter is replaced by a crown with lily-leaves in the above arms.
Literature: Hessisches Ortswappenbuch, 1956.
