Shield Sable a lion rampant Or, armed and tongued Gules holding an oak twig Gules by his dexter arm; mantled Or, at dexter charged with a cross moline Sable and in canton a fleur-de-lis Azure, at sinister charged with a raven statant Sable on doublemount of the same and in sinister canton a clasp Azure; orle of 16 pieces, alternating of Azure and Argent
Meaning:
Lion and twig are taken from an 18th century seal of Waldböckelheim. The lion is also symbolising the rule of the Palatine Electors. The fleur-de-lis is alluding to the Dalberg kin, the clasp to the Boos kin from Waldeck. The raven is taken from the municipal arms of Mandel, but the canting almonds were replaced by a mount. The orle is symbolising the status of an associated municipality. Its tinctures are those of the Hither County of Sponheim.
