ÜBELBACH
State : Steiermark
District : Graz-Umgebung
Official blazon
Über silbernem, blau geflutetem Wellenschildfuß in Rot silbern die auf eine Spitze gestellte Seite eines würfelförmigen Silberbarrens mit vier schwarzen, kreisförmigen Punzen.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on November 1, 2016, but are much older.
The oldest use of the arms is known from 1612. A contract from that year shows a bar of silver with marks, over a blue wavy base. The base clearly stands for the -Bach part of the name. The bar of silver refers to the silver mining in the town since 1590.
Later the bar of silver with its marks, was misinterpreted as a dice. Only in the recent grant, the original description was restored, even though it still looks like a dice.
 The arms in the Coffee Hag album +/- 1932 |
 The arms as seen in the 1980s |
