No arms or seals are known prior to 1964. The upper part shows the fleur-de-lis of the French Royal arms. They represent the French rule over the city. The lower part shows the rectangles of the arms of [[Nassau]] and represent the time that the village belonged to Nassau-Saarbrücken. The chequered fess symbolises the importance of the village as a railway crossroads. The colours of the 'railway' are the colours of Prussia, to which the village belonged since 1815. | No arms or seals are known prior to 1964.
