Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on August 31, 1872 by King Ludwig II.
The tree, covered with snow, should symbolise the many forests and the importance of forestry. The divided shield was supposed to show the colours of Augsburg and Bayern, as the town originally belonged to the State of Augsburg and since 1803 to Bayern. The State of Augsburg, however, used silver and red as colours, and it is not known why black was chosen as the colour for the upper half. The blue is derived from the arms of Bayern.
 The municipal stamp shown in 1892 |
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
