The new arms were designed in 1964 and combine elements from the arms of the former rulers in the area. The upper half shows the silver eagle in red from the Counts of Dahn. The lower half shows the divided shield of the Schenken von Waldenburg family, where the label is exchanged by a the cross of the State of Speyer. The family ruled the area as vassals of the bishops of Speyer.

The eagle in the upper part of the arms is derived from the arms of the Lords of Than, Lords of Daun in the 14<sup>th</sup> century. Hauenstein at the time was part of the Daun Estate. In 1603 a large part of the estate was acquired by the Bishops of Speyer, and this is symbolised by the cross of Speyer in the centre of the shield. The other part of the estate was acquired by the Lords Schenk of Waldenburg who used arms divided in blue and gold, which forms the lower part of the Hauenstein arms.
