Incorporated into : 1972 Hünstetten

Wappen von Ketternschwalbach/Arms (crest) of Ketternschwalbach
Official blazon
German blazon wanted
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on ??-??-19??.

The oldest known seal of the village dates from 1613 and shows a saint holding a plam leaf and a pair of pliers. These are clearly the symbols of St. Agatha, but the church was, as far as known, devoted to St. Paul at the time. Several 18th century seals show different tools, including pliers, whereas on a seal from 1806 the lion of Nassau appears, flanked by two palm leaves. The village was a possession of the Counts of Nassau since 1333.

The arms above show the two attributes of St. Agatha, which also appeared separately on the later seals. As there were no colours known of the seals, the colours were chosen arbitrarily.
