The arms show the wheel and sword for St. Catherine, the local patron saint. The saint is shown with her attributes on the local seal dating from the late 18<sup>th</sup> century. The wheel was removed in the 19<sup>th</sup> century as it was seen as the symbol for the [[Mainz (State)|State of Mainz]], to which the village belonged until 1803. As the whole composition was too complicated it was decided to design arms with only the wheel and sword. | The arms show the wheel and sword for St. Catherine, the local patron saint.
