Historically the arms of Waltershausen showed only a fish, most likely a symbol for Christianity. The oldest seal, dating from 1330 already showed a fish, holding a ring in its beak. In the 16th century the fish was placed in a Gothic fence, which later was replaced by the three pine trees. Hupp showed in the 1920s the arms in slightly different composition, with the middle tree in front of the fish, see below.
