Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on June 18, 1979.

The arms show a bear holding an axe. This composition is derived from the arms of the Hackledt family, who had their estate in the village from the 14th century until 1814.

Literature : Baumert, H.E. : Oberösterreichische Gemeindewappen, Linz, 1996.
