Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on February 7, 1977.
The municipality is devoted mostly to agriculture and market-gardening for the markets at Graz. The ox-yoke is a powerful symbol of this as well as a reference to a topographic name in the municipality, Ochsenjöchl (small ox-yoke).
The crozier stands for the archdiocese of Salzburg, land-owner in the area since the Middle Ages.
