Meaning:
The watermill's demi wheel is a canting element. The municipality's name means "valley of mills". Furthermore it is stressing the importance of watermill's in the past. The acorns are representing former Frankenhausen municipality, the wolf trap is representing former Nieder-Beerbach municipality and the Frankenstein kin, the former local rulers.
