Official blazon

Gespalten von Gold und Silber; vorne ein halber roter Adler am Spalt, hinten auf grünem Zweiberg zwei grüne Rohrhalme mit schwarzem Kolben.

Origin/meaning

Rohr was a property of the local Augustiner monastery and thus had no own seals or arms until 1803. The arms were first used around 1812 and show in the left part the canting Rohr-plants. The eagle is the eagle of Brandenburg, which represent the influence of the Markgraves of Brandenberg-Ansbach in the area.
