Meaning:
The oak leaf is taken from the arms of the local Wiltinger kin, known since the 14th century. The sinister half displays the arms of the Barons of Riccabona in Reichenfeld. Karl Josef of Riccabona had been priest of the local parish church for more than 30 years, before he was appointed Bishop of Passau in 1826. He had been a great local benefactor.

Shield Or a farmer passant dressed Sable, wearing a broad hat of the same and a mattock Argent hafted Sable in bend sinister upon his shoulder, issuant from base a triplemount Vert.
Meaning:
The farmer is taken from the family arms of the local priest Mathias Hauner. A Hauner is a man bearing a mattock (German: Haue). The farmer is thus canting. The priest had been a great benefactor. The green triplemount on a golden background is taken from the arms of the Benedictine Niederaltaich Monastery.
