Blazon : "On silver a blue bar coveredwith two entwined gold rings ."
Justification of the coat of arms: In the community of Eberholzen, the local legend “The Scheidebrunnen” is common. It deals with the motif of inviolable fidelity to death, symbolized by the intertwined rings in the blue ribbon. The community unanimously chose this coat of arms, which is so meaningful for them.
