Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on July 19, 1930.

The arms show mainly the eagle of Tirol. The eagle is placed on a fence, which symbolises the wall of the local zoo, founded in the 16th century by the Counts of Tirol. The base shows a meadow (Wiese), which is a canting element.

Literature : Köfler and Beimrohr, 1995
