Official blazon

Ein Schild schräglinks geteilt von Schwarz und Gold, in Schwarz goldener Schlüssel gekreuzt mit goldenem Schwert.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on February 8, 1958.

The colours gold and black refer to the fact that Mauren belonged to the Lordship of Schellenberg. The key and sword recall the protector of the parish (St. Peter).
