District : Feldbach

S-stefanr.jpg

Origin/meaning :

The arms were granted on January 11, 1955.

The arms are those of a family of noblemen from the Middle Ages, the Hagegker, who owned the lands in the region. The green chief was added for difference, as the rose is frequently met with in heraldry.
