Coat of arms of Peheim

The Peheim war memorial is depicted on the Peheim coat of arms. The war memorial was the church of Peheim until 1944 or 1945 and was bombed in the last years of the Second World War. Until the new parish church was founded, the old church was poorly repaired. After the new parish church was inaugurated, the temporarily repaired roof of the old church was removed and it was converted into today's war memorial.
