The arms show in the right side the arms of the city of [[mainzMainz]], as the village belonged to the [[Mainz (State)|State of Mainz]]. Most often only a single wheel is used, but here the whole city arms are taken. The left side shows a T-cross, the symbol for the local saint, St.Anthony. The arms were granted in 1895, but the same combination of Mainz and cross can be seen on border stones from the 17th and 18th centuries. The oldest combination in a single shield dates from 1632, but here the shield was divided per bend. Other seals of the village showed St. Anthony as a person.
