Blazon : "In black, a silver two-handled bulbous urn with attached conical foot and cross-cut lid." | |
Justification of the coat of arms: The coat of arms comes from a municipal seal from 1843. A similar seal is proven as early as 1806. It was probably created after the transition from the town of Schaumburg to Nassau, whereby the urn appears to be a place symbol. |
