The village belonged to 1803 to [[Passau]] and there are no historical arms or seals known. The heart was in 1890 explained to symbolise the 'good hearts' of three local nobles, Jörg Watzmannsdorfer, Burkhard Puchberger and Ulrich Schätzl, who saved the village during a famine in 1459. During 7 months they distributed foods in front of the local church. It is unlikely though that the heart is taken from this story. The origin thus remains unknown. | |||
