In Blau ein silberner flugbereiter Ganter mit einer rechts und links aus dem Hals wachsenden schwebenden verkürzten silbernen Leiste, belegt mit einem roten Herzschild mit einem silbernen sechsspeichigen Rad.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on October 12, 1993.
The goose (Ganter) is a canting element and was first used in the 1950s. The small barr refers to the Kirch- (church) part of the name. The small shield shows the arms of the State of Mainz, to which the area historically belonged.
