„Gules, a bend wavy Or above a hempbreak Argent sinister and below a six rays star Argent.“
The arms were drawn by Kurt Schweder who designed coats of arms for all districts of Essen in die 1980s; they were never official used, but meanwhile recognized by the citizens of Essen and its districts.

The arms are canting; the river stands for "-beck (Bach)" and the star for "Schonne-" (schön - that means " nice village by the small river"). The star is also derived from the arms of the powerful family Porten zu Dyc or Portendieck together with the hempbreak.
