Origin/meaning

The silver beaver is the canting symbol of the Lords of Bibra (Biber=beaver), who owned the village for a long time. The linden tree symbolises the ancient linden tree in the village. The green and silver division of the shield symbolises the meadows and pastures (Wiesen), and thus are a canting element.
