Shield Argent an eradicated deciduous tree Vert, flanked by two escutcheoans, the dexter one Sable alion rampant Or, crownd arms and tongued Gules, the sinister one Gules a crozier issuant Or.
Meaning:
The arms are based on local court seals, in use between 1303 and 1473. The tree, which had been an oak on an older version, is a representation of the Vorholz, a local wood. The dexter escutcheon displays the arms of the Palatine Electors, locla rulers for centuries. The sinister escutcheon is alluding to the local Cistercian Sion Nunnery, which had been an important manorial lord between 1300 and 1550.
