Official blazon
English blazon wanted

Origin/meaning

As nearly all abbots, he combined the arms of the Abbey with his personal arms. For his personal arms he took symbolism from the legend of St. Bonifatius and the oak of Wodan. Bonifacius cut the oak to show that the old gods were not as powerful as his Christian god. The arms thus show a Christian cross and an oak tree with an axe.
