Additions : 1939 Güchenbach, Hilschbach, Überhofen; 1974 Walpershofen
Official blazon
- (1970) In Schwarz ein goldener Schräglinksbalken, begleitet oben von einem dreiblättrigen goldenen Eichenzweig und unten von einer goldenen Seilscheibe.
- (1977) Von Blau und Schwarz durch einen goldenen Schräglinksbalken geteilt, oben drei (2:1 gestellte) silberne Fußspitzkleeblattkreuze, unten eine sechsspeichige goldene Seilscheibe.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on April 20, 1977.
The main design is taken from the old arms of Riegelsberg (see below). The bar is a canting symbol for the Saartal, in which the municipality is situated. The canting element is that the mountain (black, Berg) is regulating (riegeln) the valley. The wheel is a symbol for the coal mines in the municipality. The three crosses in the arms are taken from the arms of Walpershofen.
The previous arms were granted on April 29, 1970.
The bend and wheel are the same as above, the oak branch is a symbol of the local forests and the three leaves symbolise the three villages that were united in 1939.
