Fürstenfeldbruck Coat of Arms

Shield Gules with base Azure, a triangular throughout bridge Argent with guardrail Or and a Latin cross Or in its centre, chief lozengy of Argent and Azure.
Meaning:
The village of Bruck (meaning "bridge") received town rights in 1306 and became a possession of the Fürstenfeld Abbey in 1342. The name hence became Fürstenfeldbruck. The arms showed a bridge with three crosses above the bridge. The current arms are based on an image by Mielich and Apian in a Roll of Arms from 1565. The bridge is a canting element, the cross probably indicates the Abbey and the chief shows the arms of Bayern.

The first arms were granted in 1813 by King Max I Joseph of Bayern. The current arms were approved in 1936 .
