The area was settled by Saxon tribes, who built their homes on small artificial hills. One of these original sites still exists in the village and is characterised by a large linden tree. The arms thus show some small hills in the base and a linden tree. The wheel symbolises the spinning industry, which for centuries was important in the village. The left wheel symbolises industry, especially the gypsum industry. The base shows a plough for agriculture. | The area was settled by Saxon tribes, who built their homes on small artificial hills.
