Description of the flag

Blue, divided by a silver wavy band (representing the brook Esche).
Jan Oskar Engene 11 Apr 1996, quoting [kra81]

Coat of arms

The arms are azure with a silver dove, with red feet, holding in its beak a red piece of wood. At the bottom appears a silver wave. The silver dove holding a red piece of wood appears in the arms of the covent of Pfaefers who owned the church in Eschen. The arms were adopted on 16 April, 1942.
Pascal Vagnat, 21 Nov 1995

The decree actually says «a bloody piece of wood».
