Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on December 10, 1993.
The arms show a canting St. Gangolf, the local patron saint. The reeds (Schilfkolben) are a canting element for the village of Schilfa. The blue and silver are taken from the arms of the Von Brühl and Von Hagke families, who owned estates in Gangloffsömmern and Schilfa respectively.
