They obviously have a problem with the correct order of the
colours: This version consistently and clearly shows yellow-black
instead of black-yellow.

colours of Schellenberg seigniory

M. Schmöger, 15 Sep 2009The arms are diagonally divided in two fields, black and gold. On the
first appears a golden sword and key in form of a saltire. The colours are
those of the nobility of Schellenberg to whom Mauren
once belonged. The sword and key symbolise the right of patronage on the
parish. The arms of Mauren were adopted on 8 February, 1958.
