Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on January 17, 1994.

The arms are based on elements taken from the old seals of the four villages in the municipality. The wheat=ears are taken from the seals of Seiferdorf and Sirbis. The wolf is a canting element for Wolfsgefärth, whereas the fox is taken from the seal of Zedlitz. The division symbolises the position of the village on the so-called Silbergrund region. This can be translated as silver-ground, hence the colour and the point.
