Freiland is a municipality in Western Styria, on the mountain ridge of the Koralpe. It was settled only at the end of the 12<sup>th</sup> century, which is comparatively late for this region. It was unclaimed, "free land" (Frei Land), in other words raw woods, from which the first settlers had to hew their homesteads. So, a plain shield was used for Freiland. As clover is an important plant for fodder, a bordure of trefoils was included, too. Red and silver are the colours of the Benedictine monastery of Admont, which owned the lands of the now municipality. | Freiland is a municipality in Western Styria, on the mountain ridge of the Koralpe.
