Origin/meaning

The lands belonged to the monastery of the Canons Regular at Klosterneuburg. In the 18^th century, the Canons founded a settlement there, which was named after the then Provost of Klosterneuburg, Floridus Leeb. Floridus is derived from Latin "flos", flower. The arms are therefore canting.
