Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on September 12, 1979.

The arms show the golden lion of the Pfalz, for the villages of Miesau and Elschbach, which were historically a possession of the Counts of the Pfalz, later Pfalz-Zweibrücken. The silver lion is taken from the arms of the Counts of Homburg, who, in medieval times, ruled most of the other villages in the Verbandsgemeinde. The base refers to the Sickinger Höhe region, which is symbolised by the hills (höhe) and the balls taken from the arms of the Lords of Sickingen. Several of the villages were ruled by the Lords of Sickingen in the 17th century.
