Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on July 29, 1966.

The banner or gonfalon in the arms is taken from the arms of the Montfort Estate, to which the area historically belonged. The linden leaves symbolise the city of Lindau, to which the municipality belonged in the 19^th century until 1850. The fleur-de-lis is derived from the arms of the local poet Hermann von Lingg.
