WUNDSCHUH
State : Steiermark
District : Graz-Umgebung
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on ??
The arms are, in a way, canting. The name itself is a corruption of a medieval name, Wurmschach. "Schach" meant, in those days, a light wood or the fringes of the forest. "Wurm" means worm (literally), but also snake or even dragon. So, a snake appears between the trees.
