The arms were officially granted on December 7, 1929 and adapted on August 19, 1939.
The upper part shows the locl church in winter. This refers to the fact that the famous Christmas song 'Silent Night, Holy Night' was composed here and first sung in the local church in 1818.

In 1929 the arms were granted with an angel as supporter, which was removed in 1939.
