Official blazon

Geteilt von Blau und Silber; oben nebeneinander drei durch Mauern verbundene silberne Zinnentürme, unten drei auf niedrigen grünen Hügeln stehende grüne Laubbäume.

Origin/meaning

The arms are canting, showing towers (Türme) over trees (Wald, or forest). These arms first appear on a seal dating from 1649. The arms have been used ever since, first only in seals, later, in the last century, also in documents.
