Mettweiler

It belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde of Baumholder, whose seat is in the like-named town.

The municipality lies in the Westrich, an historic region that encompasses areas in both Germany and France.

[1] The municipality's arms might be described thus: Per fess argent issuant from the line of partition a demilion azure armed and langued gules, and azure two ears of wheat couped per saltire surmounted by a bell Or.

The charge in the upper part of the escutcheon, the lion, is a reference to the village's former allegiance to the County of Veldenz.

Each year, a kermis and a Brunnenfest (“Fountain Festival”) are held.
