Wappen von Frankenburg am Hausruck

Official blazon

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on June 11, 1621 at the same time as the town rights, by Emperor Ferdinand II.

The oak leaves on the wavy bars are derived from the arms of the Counts Khevenhüller-Aichelberg, who were Lords of Frankenburg for three centuries until 1810.The pillow and the horn are derived from the arms of Barbara Teufel von Gundersdorf, wife of Christoph Count Khevenhüller, who was Lord of Frankenburg in 1621. The small escutcheon is the initial of the Emperor.
