Origin/meaning

The quartered shield is taken from the arms of some German Schott family and is used here to symbolise the last name of the bishop.

The gridiron or grill is the symbol of Saint Lawrence, the first baptismal saint of the bishop. The eagle is taken from the arms of some Austrian Hofer family and honours the family name of the mother of the bishop.

The IHS stands for Jesus and refers to the devotion of the bishop to the Blessed Sacrament.
