Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on November 27, 1672.
Schnabelwaid was sold in 1668 to Margrave Christian Ernst von Brandenburg-Bayreuth. The oldest seal dates from the same time and already shows the above arms. The eagle is the eagle of Brandenburg, the other half is a canting element (Schnabel = bill/beak). In the original seal the species of bird could not be distinguished, but it was mentioned in 1692 as a stork. The colours are most likely derived from the arms of the Lords of Künsberg, previous owners of the village.
