State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Passau (until 1973 Griesbach im Rottal)
Additions : 1972 Karpfham, Reutern, Sankt Salvator, Weng

Wappen von Bad Griesbach im Rottal

Official blazon

(de) In Rot über grünen Wellen ein silberner Felsenberg.

Origin/meaning

Although Griesbach has been an important town for many centuries, it did not become a city until 1953. The present arms were granted on October 10, 1972 and are based on a (lost) document from 1557 in which the arms were supposedly granted.

In any case, the arms are known as such since 1565. The arms are canting (Gries=rock, Bach=brook), showing a rock in a river. In a 17th century image the rock somehow was shown as a group of houses.
