SIEGERSDORF BEI HERBERSTEIN
State : Steiermark
District : Hartberg
Origin/meaning :
The arms were granted on April 20, 1998.
The vine is, of course, a reference to viticulture, which is quite common in Eastern Styria.
The lion is taken from the arms of the Waldsberg family, who owned the lands before they passed on to the counts of Herberstein.
