Wolpertshausen Coat of Arms

In a red shield are two silver (= white), averted battle hammers. The shield has a silver (= white) chief, superimposed by three red, heraldic roses.
Meaning:
The hammers are taken from the arms of the Lords of Reinsberg. The roses are taken from the arms of the Lords of Bilriet. Both had been local rulers in the Middle Ages.
