| German | Ein vierfach geteilter Schild: das rechte obere und das linke untere Feld zeigen auf schwarzem Grunde drei goldene Querbalken. Das linke obere und rechte untere Feld zeigen eine rote obere und eine silberne untere Fläche. In der silbernen Fläche befindet sich ein gestürzter roter Hut mit goldenem Überstulp; aus dem Hut wachsen drei aufrechte gestellte Straußenfedern [in die rote Schildhälfte]. Auf dem Schild ruht in der Mitte ein kleiner Herzschild, der auf schwarzem Grunde eine silberne Rübe mit drei grünen Blättern zeigt. |

Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on February 11, 1954.
The arms are those of the Von Keutschach family, who had their estate in the area. The family was first mentioned in 1299 and became very influential in the 15th and 16th century. One of the most famous family members was Leonhard von Keutschach, Archbishop of Salzburg. The family got extinct in 1773.
The original family arms show a beetroot. The municipality was granted the complete arms of the family as used in the 16th century as municipal arms, including helmets and crests. These feudal symbols are officially no longer allowed under Austrian law, but the arms were not formally changed. The municipality uses both the shield only (as shown above) as well as the full arms (shown below).
