Blazon : "The coat of arms of the municipality shows a stylized, silver oak trunk on a red background, from which an oak leaf hangs down on each side." | |
Founding of the coat of arms: The coat of arms was created in 1981 and is linked to the oldest coat of arms associated with Groß Schwülper, the coat of arms of the Lords of Swilbere. The coat of arms symbolizes survival and growth by means of the young oak shoots, despite surviving difficult times, symbolized by the branched (almost bare) oak trunk. |
