Origin/meaning
The arms were approved in 1951 for the Dotzheim district of Wiesbaden, but were already in use for a long time before. The meaning of the T is not known; it may be the initial of the village, a village symbol or the symbol of St. Anthony. The T already appeared in the 16th and 17th century seals of the village, since 1816 the T appeared in a shield.
