Bischbrunn Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale, at dexte Argent an oak branch Vert with acorns Or, at sinister Gules a draw well Argent masoned Sable with chain and bucket Or.
Meaning:
The well (German: Brunnen) is a canting element. The branch is symbolising the location in the Spessart, a forest. Bischbrunn was established in the late Medieval by forest clearance. The tinctures red and white are those of the Archbishopric of Mainz, to which Bischbrunn belonged until 1803.
