Heraldry of the World Civic heraldry of Germany - Deutsche Wappen (Gemeindewappen/Kreiswappen) |
BURTENBACH
State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Günzburg
Additions : 1978 Kemnat
Official blazon
In Rot zwei schräg gekreuzte silberne Schlüssel, denen eine aufrechte, bewurzelte goldene Lilie unterlegt ist.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on October 22, 1929.
The arms are identical to the arms of the Schertlin family, who ruled the town from 1532-1835. The family arms, however changed already in 1534, and thus the arms only refer to the time the family acquired the town.
