Coat of Arms

Renaissance shield Gules, a walled church Argent with one tower as seen from the East on top of five hills Vert ordered 2:3.
Meaning:
The church is a representation of the local parish church with a tower from the 14th century. The hills are representing local burial mounds from the Bronze Age, called Celtic Tumuli by the local people. The tinctures red and white are those of the Bishopric of Augsburg, which had been the most important manorial lord in the village. The flag colours are those of the city of Augsburg.
