Official blazon

Von Gold und Schwarz gespalten, rechts ein links gewendeter blau bewehrter und -bezungter roter Löwe, links ein silbernes Hufeisen mit abwärts gekehrten Stollen über einer goldenen Hirschstange mit fünf Enden.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 12, 1962.

The colours and the lion are taken from the arms of the Dukes of Pfalz-Zweibrücken, who ruled the area until 1793. The horse-shoe and the antler refer to the other families that had possessions in the area. The horse-shoe is derived from the arms of the Knights von Orlebach, the antler from the arms of their successors, the Knights of Bitsch.

Literature : Debus, 1988.
