Description of coat of arms:
In a blue field are two grey crossed shelves, ending in horseheads. Left, right and above of the crossed shelves are three golden (=yellow) hearts. Beneath the shelves is a golden (=yellow) animal's head. It should be a boar according to the municipality's name, but it looks somehow doggy.
The three hearts might have the same meaning like the ones of Deutsch Evern (Samtgemeinde* Ilmenau).
