Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on October 20, 1928.
The chamois in the arms is taken from the arms of the local Jonas family, which played a major role in the local development. Jakob Jonas also became vice chancellor of Austria in the 1550s.
The small banner refers to the County of Montfort-Feldkirch to which the area historically belonged.
Until 1927 the seals showed St. Ulrich, the local patron saint. When there was a discussion for new arms, it was first proposed to use the local Neumonfort Castle as a symbol, but finally the above arms were approved.
