The municipal election held on 7 June 2009 yielded the following results:
The municipality's arms might be described thus: Sable a kettle-hat argent pierced each side with a cord gules, itself nowed at each end and looped once in base.
The âÂÂkettle-hatâ (Kesselhut in German) apparently was once typical. It appeared in the village seal as early as 1459. It could be a canting charge for the family Kessler von Sarmsheim who held the local castle in the Middle Ages.
With local winemaking businesses, business is done by so-called self-marketers, who mostly market their own wares directly to end users.
