Also proposed had been three other banners with arms shifted to the top: 1) a red-white-red vertical triband (see left image above), 2) a blue-white-red vertical tricolour (see central image above) and 3) a red-white-blue vertical tricolour (see right image above). All had been refused, because the inhabitants were "neither Austrian nor French but Bavarian".

Shield Argent two halberds Azure in saltire, in base an eagle's head Gules.
Meaning:
The eagle's head is known from a seal of the Lords of Alling. Their name is derived from "eagle", the head is thus a canting element. The halberds are alluding to the battle of Hoflach (1422) between the Bavarian Dukes Ernst and Wilhelm of Bayern-München and Ludwig the Bearded of Bayern-Ingolstadt.

The banner was adopted on 17 October 2012 by the local council, after the old bicolour with bannerhead had been forbidden shortly before the 27 September 2012 by the Main State Archives. The arms were approved on 12 October 1970 by Minister of Interior of Bayern.
