Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on January 4, 1936 to the Amt Nümbrecht and again on August 6, 1970 to the new municipality.

The arms are identical to the arms of the Homburg Estate, a possession of the Counts of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg. The castle is also used in the arms of the district. The Homburg is situated in the municipality. Above the left tower is the arms of the Counts themselves.
