  • (2015) In rotem Schild drei waagrecht übereinander liegende, je dreimal oben und unten nach rechts gestümmelte silberne Knüttel.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on November 30, 1954 and again on November 1, 2015.

The arms are canting, showing three Knüttel (coshes or ragged staffs), and have been used since the 13th century. The name Knittelfeld is usually considered a Rodungsname, a "clearing name" of the Middle Ages. The city was formally founded in the 13th century.
