Niederfüllbach Coat of Arms

Shield barry of ten of Sable and Or, charged with a bend sinister wavy Azure enhanced and a angel's wing Argent abased.
Meaning:
The wing is taken from the arms of Michelsberg Abbey in Bamberg, probably alluding to its name giver. The abbey of Michelsberg and Sallfeld had been local liege lords since the 12th century. The basic tinctures are taken from the arms of Sachsen-Coburg, to which the municipality historically belonged. The blue bend wavy is symbolising the name giving Füllbach, a creek.
