Unter goldenem Schildhaupt, darin drei blaue Kronen nebeneinander, in Blau ein schreitender goldener Hirsch.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on September 12, 1949.
The deer is taken from the arms of the Tierberger Estate. The three crowns in the chief are most likely derived from the former convent in the town, which was devoted to the three Kings.
