Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on March 19, 1970.
The lion is taken from the arms of the Counts of Saarbrücken who founded the local chapel of St. Nichoals. In 1270 Count Johann von Saarbrücken-Commercy confirmed the rights of the chapel. In 1349 the chapel became a possession of the St. Nabor Abbey, which is symbolised by the crosier. The three balls are the symbol of St. Nicholas. The two bricks are taken from the arms of Countess Eleonore von Nassau-Saarbrücken, who re-founded the village in the 17th century.
