Origin/meaning :
The arms were officially granted on January 22, 1974.

The column in the arms is the local colum erected in the late medieval times against the plague. It is a typical landmark in the village. The silver pale is the salt-road that used to pass through the village.

Literature : Köfler and Beimrohr, 1995
