Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on April 21, 1967.

The bend and the wheatear are canting symbols; the word Jetto or Getto is an old German word for a wheat ear (Ähernbuschel), whereas Bach means brook, river. The lyre is a symbol for the fact that the village is known as a village for musicians.

Literature: Debus, 1988
