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.
