The arms were officially granted on January 28, 1958.
The fleur-de-lys and the rose are taken from the arms of the Lords von Zocha, who owned the village in the 17th century. The quartered shield is the arms of the Hohenzollern dynasty as Burggraves of Nürnberg and Lords of Aha in the 14th century.
