Coat of Arms

Shield Azure, a crescent recumbent reversed Argent surrounded by three 6-point stars of the same, in chief a fleur-de-lis Argent.
Meaning:
The current arms were introduced in 2009. In the former arms the fleur-de-lis was representing Alsbach, the rooster as a canting element Hähnlein (rooster = Hahn). Each star is representing one of the two municipalities. In the current arms, which had been the arms of Alsbach before, the stars got a new interpretation representing the three municipalities Alsbach, Hähnlein and Sandwiese.
