coat of arms

Hülzweiler was created as a forest clearing settlement. This is symbolized by the oak branch in the coat of arms. The "Abtskrümme" stands for the bond with the Abbey Fraulautern . The diminished lion's head stands for the former sovereignty of the Counts of Nassau-Saarbrücken until 1581. The three double crosses show the subsequent affiliation to the Duchy of Lorraine .

The "Helzwella Kirw" always takes place around the second Sunday in August and usually lasts from Saturday to Wednesday.
