The arms were officially granted on June 3, 1909. | |||
The arms are based on the diocesan arms (cross and pales), with the cross in different colours. The star is taken from the arms of [[Mattighofen]], where the bishop was born. The wing is taken from the symbol of St. John (an eagle), and refers to his name Johannes when he was a monk before becoming bishop. | |||
