Official blason

In Gold unter einem mit Spitzen von Silber und Rot geteilten Sparren eine nach links gewendete, rot bewehrte, schwarze Uttenschwalbe.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 13, 1971.

The black cormorant is taken from the arms of the Lords von Closen, who owned the village from 1510-1762. The silver and red chevron symbolises the Cistercian Abbey of Fürtenzell, to which the church belonged from 1500-1803.
