Shield Argent, issuant from base a triplemount Vert charged with a pile wavy Argent, on its central top a clover Vert with five trefoils, superimposed by an inescutcheon Azure, charged with a fleur-de-lis Or.
Meaning:
The trefoils are representing the former independent municipalities of Forst, Grub, Haasgang, Wernsbach and Weihenzell proper. The pile wavy is referring to a local mineral spring. The inescutcheon is referring to the Gumbertus Monastery in Ansbach. Gumbertus is considered to be the founder of the village.
