Origin/meaning
The arms were devised and granted in 1960.
The arms show the lion of Solms and a brick wall. Around 1100 the Counts of Solms built a watermill in the village. The village took the name of the Counts, who also built a castle in the village. After the extinction of the dynasty in the 15th century the castle and mill became ruins. The castle and mill are shown as a brick wall, which is rather unique in German heraldry, where most often a building is shown.
