Kirchseeon Coat of Arms

Shield Vert a nun moth Argent between two eradicated firs Or.
Meaning:
Kirchseeon gained the title of a market town in 1959. The charges are alluding to one of the greatest Bavarian cataclysm. In 1889 the greatest part of the local forests was destroyed by nun moths (Latin: Lymantria monacha), also called black arches. In order to recycle the wood, the Bavarian Railway established a sleeper factory. The settlement developed since 1891 and is now an industrial municipality. The firs are also alluding to the nearby Ebersberg Forest.

The banner was approved on 27 March 1958 by Minister of Interior of Bayern (I B I - 3000/29 K 10). The arms were already approved on 11 February 1957.
