KOPFING IM INNKREIS

State : Oberösterreich
District : Schärding

Official blazon

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on December 22, 1975.

The three diamonds in the chief are taken from the arms of Urban von Trenbach, Birshop of Passau from 1561-1598. The area belonged from 1227-1803 to the State of Passau. The diamonds also refer to the Lords of Pirching, who had their estate in the municipality.

The star refers to a miracle on 1755 when a large red star with four rays was seen in the sky from the village. The wavy point refers to the local spring, which is used as a health spa.
