Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on July 22, 1965.
The red cross and the silver pale are taken from the arms of the State of Trier and the Counts Von der Leyen, to which the village historically belonged. The deer antlers are the symbol of St. Hubertus, the local patron saint. The wavy base and water lily leaf symbolise the small lake on which the village is situated.
Literature: Debus, 1988
