The arms were granted on March 30, 1992.
Wörschach lies in the valley of the river Enns, between high mountains. Within the municipality, the mighty ruins of Wolkenstein (lit. "cloud-stone", a high mountain) castle can be seen. The arms try to depict this, the mountains and the clouds. The wooden tub refers to the sulphur springs in the area . At themoment, however, these are not used any longer for therapeutic purposes.
