Neuhütten Coat of Arms

Shield Gules, in chief three crystals Argent in fess, in base a 6-spokes wheel of the same.
Meaning:
Neuhütten was established as a settlement for glassblowers amid the Spessart, a forest. It had been seat of one of the four glass kilns of the Archbishopric of Mainz since 1477. The wheel and the tinctures red and silver are alluding to the archbishopric, to which the area belonged until 1803. The crystals are representing the glass kiln.
