Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on June 28, 1956.

The arms show a canting beech tree, the name Pullach is derived from Buchenwald (or beech forest). The tree also stands for the two other villages in the municipality, Hesselohe and Höllriegelskreuth, derived from a hazel tree and a clearing of the forest respectively. The wavy bend is the Isar river. The lower left half shows part of the arms of the Lords of Baierbrunn, the oldest known Lords of the village, dating from the 13^th century.
