Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on February 21, 1919.
The black field and the tools indicate the importance of the coal mining in the town. The bees symbolise the bee-keeping which was very common in the beginning of the century. The bees also indicate the zeal of the labourers.
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
