Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on October 1, 1965.

The water lilly leaves are taken from the Wildon family, who founded in 1230 the Stainz Monastery, to which the village for a long time belonged. The axe is taken from the arms of the Lords of Stubenberg, who had their estate in the municipality.
