According to Die Symbole Österreichs by Peter
Diem (1995) [die95],
the Lower Austrian state coat of arms is crowned by a three-towered mural crown.
Jan Oskar Engene, 11 April 1996
I have read that these arms (azure, five eaglets 2, 2 and 1 or) are also known as Austria Ancient,
being the arms of the rulers of the Ostmark before
that district became a Habsburg possession (and a separate duchy, named Österreich,
within the Holy Roman Empire). It is mentioned on the Swiss pages that the
original Habsburg arms were or, a lion rampant gules.
