In Silber das rote Ortszeichen in Form eines spiegelverkehrten kleinen h, überhöht rechts oben von einem roten Stern. |

Origin/meaning
The strange figure in the arms is described as a plough-stick, which first appears in a seal known from 1751. The stick was already combined with the star. The origin of both symbols is not known.
In the early 19th century the seal of the village showed the stick flipped horizontally and the star had disappeared. Later in the 19th century the old combination was restored. The combination was proposed in the present colours by the State Archives in November 1900, and adopted by the council in January 1901.
Literature: Zier and Futterer, 1966; John et al., 1990.
