====Origin/meaning====
The thornbranch in the arms is a canting symbol (Dorn=thorn, Holz=wood), which appeared on the local seal in the early 20<sup>th</sup> century. Previously the seals in the 19<sup>th</sup> century showed the lion of Hessen and the letters D and H.
 
The arms were officially granted in 1939. Silver and red are the colours of the Counts of Hessen-Homburg, who founded the village in 1699.
