Coat of arms of Ruwer

Ruwer is a special kind of community in Germany. It's called a Verbandsgemeinde, which means it's a group of smaller towns and villages that work together for administrative purposes. This community is located along the Ruwer River. The main office for Ruwer is in the town of Waldrach. It's important not to mix up this community with a different town also called Ruwer, which is actually part of the big city of Trier.
