Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 27, 1991.

The helmet refers to the local patron saint, St. George (generally shown as aknight on a horse). The two linden leaves refer to the village of Lindach in the municipality, as well as to the forests in the area in general. The point symbolises the letter A, the initial of the village.
