Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 2018.

The arms are a combination of the previous arms (see below) and the arms of Schönegg.

The previous arms were officially granted on January 19, 1970.

The white wavy bar is canting (Weissen-bach, white-brook). The star symbolises that the village is at the base of the Sternstein mountain, with 1125 m the highest mountain in the region.

Literature : Baumert, H.E. : Oberösterreichische Gemeindewappen, Linz, 1996.
