LIMBACH BEI NEUDAU
State : Steiermark
District : Hartberg-Fürstenfeld (until 2015 Hartberg)
Incorporated into : 2015 Bad Waltersdorf, Neudau
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on May 20, 1996.
The name of the municipality, Limbach, means "Lindenbach", brook of lindens. So linden-leafs were included into the arms.
Until the 18th century, there were two churches in today's Limbach, St. Oswald and St. Bartholomäus. St. Bartholomäus, Apostle and Martyr, was a favourite saint of the Emperor Otto III and was often chosen as
patron-saint in churches at the frontiers of the Holy Roman Empire. Both saints are symbolised by a golden crown. The crosses stand for centuries of Christian life and especially the ius baptizandi, which the church
has enjoyed since the 12th century.
