„Party per pale wavy shield azure and Or, three shifty raising wheat ears Or and left rising out of the pale, a water wheel azure with shovels sable.“ 
The arms show the former agricultural character of the municipality. The pale wavy, the water wheel and the blue colour symbolise the Werse river with its water mills.
