Origin/meaning

The arms were granted first in 1562 by Emperor Ferdinand I. In 1923 the arms were again granted, but not basically changed.

The meaning of the person is not known. The roses are taken as a symbol for the Counts of Rosenberg, who ruled the village until the late 16^th century. The spade may be a symbol for the agricultural character of the area. The original helmet and crest (the same figure as in the arms) were used until 1830 and not re-granted in 1923.

Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
