The arms show in the right part the chapel of the St. Mary, which was built in the 8<sup>th</sup> century. The chapel is considered the National Shrine of Bavaria. The left part shows the arms of Bavaria, on the one hand as a symbol of the state, and on the other hand they are a reminder of the fact that in Gurghausen a large castle (built in the 13<sup>th</sup> century) was owned by the Dukes of Bavaria. Furthermore the monastery in Altötting was founded by the Bavarian Dukes. | The arms show in the right part the chapel of the St. Mary, which was built in the 8<sup>th</sup> century.
