Until 1802 the village was a possession of the [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]]. Hence the old seals showed from the 16<sup>th</sup> century until 1802 the cross of the [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]] and the local patron saint, St. Christopher. The seal from 1803-1866 showed the local fountain on which was shown a woman carrying a jug of water. In 1867 she was replaced by a man pouring water from a jug. The jug finally was granted as arms for the town in 1956. The colours are the colours of the [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]]. | Until 1802 the village was a possession of the [[Trier (State)|State of Trier]].
