Jörg Majewski,
Shield parted per bend sinister wavy, above right Gules an axe Argent in pale, beneath left Azure a vine leaf Or.
Meaning:
The axe is taken from the old arms of Elkerhausen (shield Gules three axes Argent ordered 2:1). The division of the shield resembles a creek and is canting for the latter part of the name (Bach), whereas the vine leaf is canting for the first part of the name (Wein). For Elkershausen see: Stadler 1967, p.29
The arms were approved on 12 July 1983.
