Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on July 16, 1970.

The arms show in the upper part the historical shrines of St. Nicholas, Gertrudis and Magdalena, which are in the mountains above the village. The lower part symbolises the old toll gate in Kollmann, one of the smaller villages in the municipality.
