The oldest known seal of the town, known since 1612, but dating from the 16<sup>th</sup> century, already shows the oak and horseshoe. The horseshoe is the older village symbol. The oak is a symbol for the Imperial Forest of Dreieich (three-oaks) to which the village historically belonged. The arms have been used since 1900, but were formally granted in 1926.
