Blazon : "In gold, a red farmhouse (front view) between two blue wavy bars, accompanied on both sides by an upright green oak leaf."

The corrugated beams with the farmhouse in between symbolize the place name and, at the same time, the history of the place, "which was founded within the Bek" (creeks around it). The two oak leaves represent the extensive oak forests that still characterize the landscape around the town today.
