Wappen von Maishofen

Official blazon

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on January 23, 1978.

The castle is a symbol for the four castles in the municipality, the Saalhof, Prielau, Kammer and Stiegerschlössl castles. The plough is taken as a canting symbol for Mais. Mais means cleared forest used for agriculture. The name, however, is derived from the personal name Megin.
