Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1811, but seemed to date from the 18th century. When the arms were granted the local council could not explain the hook-like figure. It most likely was an old village sign. The wavy bend is a canting element (Bach=stream). In the 19th century the arms were often shown wrongly, with for example a straight bend or in different colours.

The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
