Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on June 12, 1973.

The horse is taken from the Counts Fraunberger zu Haag, as the area historically belonged to the Haag county. The lower half shows an axe, symbol of St. Wolfgang, the patron saint of the town. The colours of the lower half are those of Bayern.
