Coat of arms
The municipality's arms might be described thus: Argent three ears of wheat in fess palewise vert surmounted at the nombril point by a prong hoe fesswise sable.
The Verbandsgemeinde’s website shows a slightly different coat of arms, with the prong hoe's handle in a different tincture, namely gules (red).[4] This site does not contain any text about Bermersheim's coat of arms.
Culture and sightseeing
Natural monuments
Bermersheim is one of the places in Rhenish Hesse where mammalian remains from some ten million years ago have been found, in the prehistoric Rhine’s Deinotherium Sands, whose name comes from this extinct proboscid's teeth and bone remnants, which are often yielded up by these deposits.
