The arms were officially granted in 1581 by [[Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn]], Bishop of Würzburg. The arms show the local patron saint, St. Michael, killing the dragon, and holding on his breast a small shield with the arms of the Von Mespelbrunn family. The arms were used until 1806, restored again on September 11, 1835 and again granted in 1952. | |||
