Official blazon
In Blau ein oben und unten durchgehendes goldenes Passionskreuz mit abhängendem silbernen Tuch, beiderseits eine wachsende silberne Schwurhand.
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on August 18, 1959.
The city is well known for its Passion festivities, and the cross with the cloth are a symbol for these festivities. The two hands are a symbol for the faith of the population of the village during the years of pestilence in the Thirty Years war.
