Official blazon

n Blau ein goldener Dreiberg, über dessen mittlerer Kuppe ein golden gekrönter silberner Schwanenhals mit schwarzem Schnabel schwebt; auf den beiden Seitenkuppen je eine goldene Getreideähre.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on August 25, 1939.

The swan's neck was the crest used by the Lords of Sinzenhofen, who had many possessions in the area from 1373-1548. The three mountains in the base symbolise the geographical situation, near the mountains of the Bavarian Forest. The two wheat ears symbolise the (former) agricultural character of the municipality.

Literature : Stadler, K. : Deutsche Wappen - Bundesrepublik Deutschland. Angelsachsen Verlag, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
