Official blazon

Gespalten von Rot und Silber, vom ein silberner Doppelschlüssel mit einem Griff, hinten am Spalt ein verschlungener roter Lindenzweig.

Origin/meaning

The crossed keys are the symbol of St. Peter, the local patron saint.

The linden branch is taken from the arms of the Counts of Seckendorf, as the family had many possessions in the area in the 14th and 15th century.
