The upper part of the arms shows the wolf of [[Passau]], as the main part of the district belonged to the State of Passau until 1803. The lower part shows again a stick as a symbol for the bishops, and a shovel for the work which was carried out under supervision of the bishops. The bishops instigated many projects to clear the forests and built villages. | The upper part of the arms shows the wolf of [[Passau]], as the main part of the district belonged to the State of Passau until 1803.
