Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on February 12, 1993.

The lower half of the arms shows the local outdoor theatre, which was built in the 1950s. The upper half shows a canting stone (Stein) flanked by two pine trees, which symbolise the Thüringer Wald forest. The pine trees and the stone also appeared on the older village seal.

Literature : Ulle, 1998
