Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 7, 1982.
The arms combine elements of the arms of different families and corporations that historically owned part of the present municipality. The chief shows three golden balls, taken from the arms of the Freyberg family, who had many possessions in the 15th and 16th century in the municipality. The crosier represents the Cistercian monastery of Stams, they rye is the canting symbol for the Roggenburg Convent (Rogge=rye). Both monasteries played a mayor role in the local history in late medieval times. In the 16th century most of the area became part of the Babenhausen Estate under the rule of the Fugger family. The golden fleur-de-lys is taken from the arms of the Fuggers.
Literature: Kolb and Putz, 1991
