The three horse-shoes symbolise the agricultural character of the village. They indicate the importance of horses for working the fields, as well as the local smithies, which produced these horse-shoes.The lower part shows two rosehip branches. They are a canting symbol for the name of the village. Although the name has a different origin, it was thought for a long time that it was derived from Hagebutte-village, or rosehip-village.
