SCHEFFAU
State : Bayern
District (Kreis) : Berchtesgadener Land (until 1973 Berchtesgaden)
Incorporated into : 1969 Marktschellenberg
Official blazon
In Blau über drei nebeneinander liegenden silbernen Kugeln ein silbernes Wasserrad.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted in 1964.
The arms refer to the, formerly common, special water mills in the municipality, Kugelwassermühle, or ball-bearing water mills. There is only one still operating in the village. The arms thus show three balls and a water mill wheel.
