Origin/meaning
The arms show St. George, dressed as a knight and, unusually, not with the dragon. St. George was the patron saint of the Benedictine Abbey of Prüfening, to which the parish Hemau belonged until 1803.
The arms have been used since the early 14th century, as the oldest seal (known since 1324) already shows the knight. All later seals and images show the knight, but the shape and colours have changed regularly. The present colours are known since 1609.
 The arms by Tyroff (1835) |
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
