Origin/meaning
The above arms were granted in 1963.
The arms are derived from the seal of Knight Rupert von Heydersheim from 1248. The fleur-de-lis is at the time also the symbol for St. Mary, who appeared on the local seal in 1675. Below St. Mary was the wheel of the State of Mainz, to which the village belonged at the time. The colours are symbolising the former rulers in the area; silver and red for the State of Mainz, silver red and blue for Hessen, blue for Falkenstein and Nassau.
Seal from around 1900 |
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
