Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on July 30, 1938.

The arms show a canting fox taken from the arms of the Von Voss family, which for a long time owned the Bökel estate in the village. The small shield shows the arms of the Ravensberg County, to which the area historically belonged.

Literature : Meyer, 1940.
