In earlier days, when the town hall was still in Hasselbach, a system was established laying out how the order of the bakehouse users was to be determined.

[1] The German blazon reads: Schild gespalten durch blaue Wellenleiste, vorn rot-silber geschachtet, hinten grüner Haselnusszweig in Gold.

The municipality's arms might in English heraldic language be described thus: An endorse wavy azure between chequy of twenty-one argent and gules and Or a hazel twig bendwise slipped, leafed of three and fructed of two, all proper.

The charge on the sinister (armsbearer's left, viewer's right) side, a hazel twig with leaves and nuts, is thus canting.

Between the two sides is a wavy “endorse” (a much slimmer version of a pale) standing for a brook, or Bach in German, thus referring to the last syllable in the placename Hasselbach.

The following are listed buildings or sites in Rhineland-Palatinate’s Directory of Cultural Monuments:[4] Ever since 1996, a great tent city has arisen around Hasselbach each year in August to lodge those attending the open-air electronic music festival Nature One.
