KRUMEGG
State : Steiermark
District : Graz-Umgebung
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on March 29, 1982.
The arms follow the coat of the 13th-century family von Trennstein or Treuenstein, local landowners. The bar embattled "in shadow" may indicate the need of defence during the Middle Ages when two small castles or fortified manors guarded the Eastern Road to Hungary.
