In Silber ein roter Schrägrechtsbalken mit drei aneinander gereihten silbernen Rauten, begleitet rechts von einem roten vierspeichigen Mühlrad, links von einem grünen Wacholderzweig mit blauen Beeren.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1988.

The three diamonds are derived from the medieval Lords of Gebhardshain, who had several possessions in the area. The water mill wheel symbolises the local mill, which was of importance for the local development. The juniper branch symbolises the local distillery, founded in 1897.
