Shield Azure a triplemount issuant Or with a grain ear on both peaks at the flanches, above an embowed neck of a swan Argent, crowned Or, armed Sable and tongued Gules.
Meaning:
The swan is taken from the crest of the helmets of the Lords of Sinzenhofen, local rulers between 1373 and 1548. The grain ears are symbolising agriculture, the mount the location on the edge of the Bavarian Forest. Teublitz gained the status of a market town in 1939 and of a city in 1953.
