In Blau ein silberner Balken, darauf stehend eine eintürmige silberne Kirche mit roten Dächern, auf die von links eine silberne Taube mit einem goldenen Scheit im Schnabel zufliegt; unten auf grünem Boden drei grüne Nadelbäume.
Origin/meaning
The arms were devised between 1800 and 1811. Before 1800 the town used on seals only the wolf of Passau, as the town was a possession of the high-monastery of Passau. The upper part of the arms show a local history. When the local church was built it was seen that a white pigeon carried the wood for the church. The local count immediately decided to built the church where the pigeon dropped the wood. Around this church the town developed.
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
