Shield Or, a bar Gules between two flanks Gules, accompanied by 10 dolmens Azure, four of them ordered 2:2 above the bar, and six of them ordered 2:2:2 beneath the bar.
Meaning:
The arms display the letter "H", the initial of the new municipality. The ten dolmens, depicted as double-T elements, are a pre-historic symbol and symbolising the early colonisation of the area. Each dolmen is representing one of the former independent municipalities: Bechtheim, Beuerbach, Görsroth, Kesselbach, Ketternschwalbach, Limbach, Oberlibbach, Strinz-Trinitatis, Wallbach and Wallrabenstein. The red bar in the "H" is also symbolising the main road which divides the municipality. Blue and yellow had been the colours of Nassau.
