history

Schiesheim is mentioned for the first time in a document dated November 9, 879 and is no longer available in the original today. A Heimberger of his own is proven for 1526 . The place belonged to the district court Hahnstätten and thus to the respective owner of the center . In addition to arable farming, viticulture is also proven. In 1443 the place belonged to the County of Katzenelnbogen and was exchanged from Orange-Nassau to Nassau-Usingen in 1790 . In the course of the Napoleonic reorganization through the Rhine Federation Act, Schiesheim was taken over by the Duchy of Nassau in 1806 . After the annexation by Prussia , the place was part of the Prussian province of Hesse-Nassau from 1866 until the end of the Second World War and then came to the state of Rhineland-Palatinate .

coat of arms

	Blazon : "In blue over a golden arrow, a silver duck with a golden beak and foot, flying to the left."
	Justification of the coat of arms: The community seals since 1816 show a hunter in the seal field on the right who shoots a duck flying to the left. The proposal seeks to transform this “talking” seal image into a talking coat of arms. The Nassau town was judicially referred to Hahnstätten or Burgschwalbach and therefore did not have its own seal before the 19th century.
