Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on May 25, 1977.
The church tower symbolises that the church in the village is the main church in the area. The two diamonds are taken from the arms of the Tobelheim and Ecker von Kapfing families, which had large possessions in the municipality. The wavy bar represents the old name of the village, Kirch am Bach (Bach is stream or river).
