The arms were granted on August 5, 1958.


The arms show a wavy bar, symbolising the Lahn river that splits the district in two. The upper part shows the lion of the Counts of [[Diez]], who also founded the city of Diez, the capital of the district. In 1388 their possessions were acquired by the Counts of [[Nassau]] (the later Principality of Nassau-Diez). The lion of Nassau is shown in the lower half. The city and ancestral castle of the Counts of Nassau are both in the district.
