The coat of arms of Reichshof

The arms were granted on September 11, 1972.

The name is taken from the former Imperial Estate Reichshof Eckenhagen, which was established in 1167 and acquired by the Counts of Berg in 1257. The upper part of the arms shows the Imperial Eagle, and is used as a canting symbol for the municipality. The lower part is the lion of the Counts of Berg, and is taken from the seal of Eckenhagen from 1557
