Coat of Arms

Shield thrice parted per fess of Argent and Gules, in base three vairs Azure ordered 2:1.
Meaning:
The arms are identical to the arms of the town as used on the seal of the local court from 1620. The arms are based on the arms of the Kronberg kin, who named themselves after the village and castle, and who granted the city rights in 1330. The arms show in the base three helmets, derived from the 'vair' in the arms of the family (e.g. also in the lower half of the arms of the Obertaunus County).
The arms were granted in 1907 with a helmet and as a crest a bunch of black feathers (some say a pine cone). These attributes are still used in the municipal banner.
