Coat of Arms

Shield Azure, a helmet Or illuminated Gules, scarved Argent and Gules, crested with a pair of buffalo horns Argent with birch branches Or pinned onto the horns.
Meaning:
The arms show the helmet and crest of the Counts of Hessen. The town became part of Hessen in 1450, previously it had belonged to the Counts of Ziegenhain. The oldest seal with the arms is known from 1489, but the seal itself probably is older. All later seals and images show the same arms, although the colour of the field is sometimes shown as red.
