Origin/meaning
The arms were granted in 1952 and show a simplified version of the arms of the Lords of Bicken. The Lords of Bicken owned the village as vassals of the counts of Nassau from 1327 until 1732. In 1664 they became independent of the counts of Nassau. The village itself did not use arms, nor are there any seals known, so in 1952 the present arms were based on the old arms of the ruling family.
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
