Shield parted per fess; above Argent three firs Vert in fess; beneath parted per pale, at dexter sinister bendy of eight of Gules and Argent, at sinister Gules a heraldic rose Argent seeded and barbed Or.
Meaning:
The firs are referring to the Leinawald Forest in the municipality. In the decades before the arms were granted the municipality also used the three trees in its seal. Each bend sinister is representing one of the municipality's settlement cores. The rose is taken from the family arms of the Lords von Rüdigsdorf, who owned several possessions in the municipality.
