The arms show a straight hook (Winkel in German), which thus is used as a canting element. The hook has been used on the seals and borderstones of the village since the 15<sup>th</sup> century. The colours are the colours of the [[Mainz (State)|State of Mainz]], to which the village historically belonged. | The arms show a straight hook (Winkel in German), which thus is used as a canting element.
