Konradsreuth Coat of Arms

Shield Gules a bend Argent, superimposed by a weaver's shuttle Or in bend sinister with pirn Argent, base Argent a pale Azure.
Meaning:
The blue pale is taken from the family arms of the Lords of Lüchau, who had been the local liege lords since the beginning of the 15th century. The white bend in red is taken from the family arms of the Lords of Reitzenstein, who lived in the village since the 17th century. Shuttle and pirn are referring to weaving, still being an important local business line.
