Origin/meaning

The arms were designed and adopted in 1904.

The symbol is the historical village sign, used for example on border stones. The symbol also appeared on the seal of the local alderman from 1811, who used it with the letter H, his initial. In 1904 the arms were designed in the colours of the State of Baden.
