Shield parted per bend, above left Or a linden branch Vert with three leaves, beneath right Sable a 5-spokes wheel Argent, base Argent three barrulets Gules.
Meaning:
The arms refer to former rulers of the Treffelstein district (Bavarian: Hofmark). The bendy shield is taken from the arms of the Rornstetter family (1454 until 1505), the wheel from those of the Berlachingen family (1585 until middle of 17th century), the branch from those of the Reisach family (1759 until middle of 19th century) and the base from those of Sazenhofen family (1679 until the 1730ies).
