Über rotem Schildfuß, darin ein silberner Wellenbalken, in Blau auf silbernem Berg eine eintürmige silberne Kirche mit roten Dächern. Origin/meaningThe arms were granted on April 10, 1969. The upper half is based on the 19th century seal of the municipality, which, in turn probably was based on a late 18th century seal. The seal showed a canting church (Kirche) on a mountain and flanked by two angels. In the official description of the arms the church is defined as the Walburgis-chapel on the Walberla mountain in the municipality. The chapel dates from the 14th century. The base of the arms shows a wavy bar, symbol for the Bach-part of the name (Bach=stream). Contact and SupportPartners: Your logo here ?
