===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The arms were officially granted on August 22, 1939. | |||
The village is situated in the so-called Grossen Freien ('large freedom') region and the upper half shows the lion of the Freien. | |||
The lower half shows the arms of the Von Alten family, who originated from the village, and who approved the use of the family arms in 1937. | |||
