Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on June 9, 1938.

The arms are based on seals dating from the 14^th century of a Von S(e)ulingen family. The three columns are a canting element (Säule). Most seals showed the columns next to each other, the above composition is taken from the seal of Herwig von Sulingen.
