Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1949.

The arms show a star for the Counts of Erbach and a rose for the arms of the Counts of Löwenstein, as the village historically belonged to these families. The hedge in the bend symbolises the old name of the village Hain-Hagen (Hage, Gehege is a fence).
